Our favorite spot for gelato, Pitango offers astoundingly good gelatos sourced locally, with milk from an eastern Pennsylvania farm that produces high-quality dairy in small amounts. While the gelato is certainly a main attraction, the coffee and hot chocolate are delicious as well.

This is Noto's most famous gelato place. It's a 124-year old cafe with a fourth-generation owner who serves the best almond-milk granitas you will ever try. Do yourself a favor and get the cappuccino ghiacciato, which is iced coffee with the almond milk granita.

A great option for gelato in Syracuse, with more flavors than most other Sicilian gelaterias; also has great granita (though we don't like it quite as much as Gelateria Fiordilatte).
Italy | Sicily
Neat spot across from the Cathedral of Syracuse offering delicious creamy gelato; this is our favorite gelato place in Syracuse. The seating spills out onto the Piazza Duomo, so it's a great place to nurse your dessert while people watching or enjoying the beautiful buildings surrounding the square.

This funky ice cream shop off of La Rambla is reminiscent of Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory in its decoration and serves up wonderful gelato concoctions.

Most authorities agree that the debate over the best gelato on Sicily is between Caffè Costanzo and Caffè Sicilia, which is right around the corner. We really like Caffè Costanzo, though we didn't get a chance to try Sicilia. We highly recommend the almond granita.

An excellent spot for dessert in Taormina and one of our favorite gelato spots on Sicily. The gelato is delicious, and Gelatomania offers an impressible wide selection of flavors.

The best gelato in Palermo. Well worth a stop (or two) when you're in town.

A bar and gelateria, Naselli offers outdoor seating in the heart of Castelbuono's main square.
