To always be on the safe side, and be sure to hit the ice cream combinations, a first rule to follow is to never mix fruit flavors with cream flavors, with the exception of chocolate and fiordilatte, which are fairly neutral and can therefore be combined as desired. A striking example is chocolate and orange, or chocolate and mint ice cream. This latter is often called After Eight in honor of the mint chocolate brand, which as far as simple combinations are concerned has become a “classic”, easy to find in many ice cream parlors.

Another rule to follow to find different gelato flavors perfect combinations is to always balance the flavors, that is balancing a sweet flavor with a sour one: that’s why lemon and strawberry go so well together and are among the most popular flavors in summer!
