Pure happiness! Come and try these wonderful Italian ice creams, more specifically Sicilian. In addition to offering a wide range of ice creams, here you will find the mythical ‘pozzetti’, a type of sorbet infinitely thinner and solid than liquid or slushy smoothies. We recommend you to try pistachio, lemon, pistachio or almond; and of course the chocolate one. You will also be surprised by its delicious and aromatic Sicilian buns, the traditiona Sicilian home breakfast.

BISCUITER
Biscuiter heladeria barcelona

Does the name ring a bell? Remember the ice cream sandwiches? In June 2014, Bruno Balbás opened a new ice cream shop in the heart of the Ribera. The original idea was to sell ice cream, sandwiches cutting a bar of ice cream, but he finally decided to have about twenty flavors of high quality artisan ice cream, made by an ice cream master from Gava. Our recommendation: Belgian chocolate and Smurf chocolate (yes, whether you’re an adult or a child). All ice creams are natural and have no artificial colouring products.
 Where? Carrer de Sant Pere Més Alt, 78, 08003 Barcelona.
