Everybody loves ice cream, and most people can associate ice cream to their childhood. Gelato is a variant of ice cream that originated from Italy and is a mainstay in that country. Gelato has been a tradition for a few years, but the first time it was made, snow was used along with a mix of eggs, sugar, cream and flavoring, cooked at the right temperature to achieve that creamy texture. Today, Gelato is not only enjoyed in Italy, but on all parts of the world.

If you are hunting for the best gelato to satisfy your sweet tooth, here are a few tips on how to find the best gelato in town.

Color

Are you particular when it comes to color? We're not just talking about the design of the gelato plastic container, but we're talking about the color of the actual gelato that you're eating. You might want to check the color of the gelato if you want that perfect treat for a hot sunny day. If the gelato has a banana or pistachio flavor, then you might want to make sure that the color is the right one. But how would you know this? Well, we want to see what the natural color of the flavor is. If it is banana, then it will have a bright yellow color and if it's pistachio, green is the color that you are looking for. Gelato made from artificial ingredients will have a different color since some of the ingredients will alter the coloring of the finished gelato.

There is really no real reason why gelato parlors tend to keep their ingredients out in the open. This is definitely an indicator that you might want to look for another gelato shop.
