Some say that Gelupo spoons out the finest gelati in London, & we’re not arguing. Mostly milk, with pure, natural flavour added – Sicilian pistachios, hazelnuts from Piedmont, intense Alphonso mango – its chilly manna is churned fresh daily, & served from an idyllic Italian deli/shop opposite the mamma-ship, Bocca di Lupo, over the road. Meanwhile, the goods displayed at the rear provide fantastic present-buying possibilities for Soho foodies: Pantelleria capers, homemade cantucci, panforte &, effectively, the Bocca wine list without the restaurant mark-ups. There are also light lunchtime snacks to eat in (perch at a wee table or at the counter), plus takeaway sandwiches of salami with squaquerone cheese, caponata with salad, or buffalo mozzarella – not forgetting ace espresso, sourdough ciambella doughnuts, & torta caprese.

Brunch etc. :: Ice cream on a snowy day at Gelupo
After chatting with the friendly girl behind the counter, I settled on a small cup of Bonnet gelato as the perfect post-meal treat. While this was not the most visually appealing ice-cream (as my boyfriend charmingly pointed out!) it was beautifully smooth, and boasted an incredible depth of flavour - a complex, multi-layered blend of coffee, chocolate, caramel, rum, amaretti biscuit and vanilla. Delicious. And on the Gelupo website they attribute the amped up flavours of their gelato to a lower-than-average fat content...which means it's healthier than usual too!...

FoodiesOnTheProwl FoodiesOnTheProwl :: Gelupo, Dec 2012
We’ve been to Gelupo many times and we’ve always left very satisfied customers. In our opinion Gelupo has the best ice creams on offer in London and the other desserts on display are certainly worth trying as well. This time we decided to do some Christmas dessert shopping at Gelupo. To be fair we could have ordered the produce from their internet website as well (Gelupo offer many of their products via their internet website), but visiting the gelateria in person allows you try out the many flavours they have on offer (and they change quite often)...
