The best ice cream & gelato in Italy, according to the experts: Eater has weighed in, and their honors are what rank this list. My Sugar comes out on top.
-
Rank 1. My Sugar
Ice Cream Shop
A gelato shop run by a husband-and-wife team on Via de' Ginori, My Sugar churns classic flavors alongside more unexpected ones, including dark chocolate spiked with local Chianti. Florence takes its gelato seriously, and this younger operation holds its own among the old guard. The seasonal fruit flavors skew crowd-pleasing; the green tea and pure peanut suggest someone is quietly having fun with the menu.

Rank 1. Pavé Gelati
Ice Cream Shop
A gelateria where the sugar is dialed down on purpose, letting the actual fruit and cream do the talking. The sleek, minimal shop is the Milan outpost of the Pavé team, and the small-batch philosophy shows in the sourcing: Bronte pistachio, Piedmont hazelnut, fair-trade chocolate. Seasonal experiments like ricotta or white chocolate with lime and salt rotate through, which keeps regulars guessing. Bring cash and a strong opinion about cones versus cups.
