Fiocco di Neve

Fabiana Iovino and Germano Ponti took over the gelateria in Almese, a small village in the Susa Valley, in 2018, and after completing technical and management courses, developed a range of quality ice creams in which there is something to satisfy every palate. Their work is based on careful selection of the ingredients that go into their ices, Sicilian granitas, semifreddos, cakes, individual portions, lollies and brioche “sandwiches”. They use prevalently local ingredients such as Piedmontese milk and cream, Susa Valley honeys, Toritto almonds, a Slow Food Presidium, Feudo San Biagio pistachios and PGI Piemonte hazelnuts. They also produce low-sugar water ices, gluten-free cones and fruit flavours containing at least 60% fruit. The cannoli are filled exclusively with ewe’s ricotta. Alongside the classics, there is no lack of original flavours, among which tomato and basil, pesto genovese, white chocolate with capers, Sichuan pepper and candied orange zest, and Sardinian pecorino with pane carasau and fig jam.
