Does any place in the World serve gelato?

[jaw55]

I discovered gelato this spring on a trip to San Diego. It's amazing! Does anyone know if you can get it anywhere in WDW? Thanks!

There is a cart outside the Italian pavilion in Epcot that sells four varieties.

Lemon - great
Chocolate - good
Strawberry - good
Pistachio - not so good

They have really good gelato at the little stand outside of the Italy pavillon in Epcot's World Suitcase.

The cart outside in the Italy pavilion at Epcot sells yummy gelato. They sell chocolate, vanilla and pistachio (my favorite!) By the way, the lemon and strawberry flavors are italian ices, not gelato.

The Marketplace at the Beach Club has a lot of different kinds of gelato.

Yes the Marketplace has great gelato!! And different flavors. The one girl actually swirls the top of the 2 together if you get get 2 different kinds.

The BC Marketplace for gelato is one of those kind of "hidden" experiences that we really enjoy but that most people don't think about. The gelato there is quite good.

Cheers!

Well according to Stacy on the Resort TV. Go to the Italy Pavillion. and apparently also according to Stacy the Gelato guy is..."yummy" too.

The gelato at the BC Marketplace:

Last time I was there, they would swirl up to 2 flavors if you got a small, 3 flavors if you got a large. Unfortunately, some of my favorite flavors-pistachio (I LOVED), mango, and vanilla-appear to be gone but rasberry's very good.

Last wek they just had, raspberry, mango, pistachio, chocolate,
stracciatella, and I can't remember the other flavors...I think they just rotate them through

No lemon when we were there in June.

Wow! Thanks to all for the great suggestions and the amazing pics. I'm so excited for my September trip!

Oh, Oh-I'm going in September also and BC Marketplace gelato is one of my favorite things in the world. I hope there's not going to be a gelato war ala "I Love Lucy" in BC Marketplace.

I didn't even know they had gelato at the BC Marketplace, thanks for enlightening me. It makes my day when I learn something new here!

Is the gelato the same (quality, taste) at the cart in EPCOT's Italy as at the Marketplace, is does taste win out one place or the other? (for those who've tried both)

The pictures of it at the BC Marketplace look very appealing. Very.

 

[Mad4Dizne]

IMHO it is MUCH better than the stand in Italy,at Epcot. It tastes homemade. The stand one tastes prepackaged/commercially prepared.

The chocolate and pistachio are our favorites!!!

Aha! Now this sounds like something I need to investigate first-hand-how does the gelato at Italy compare to the gelato at the BC Marketplace. And I'm very indecisive, so sometimes it takes me several comparisons. Oooh, boy-I can really get into this experiment. Does anyone know if the gelato at Italy is a Snack Credit? I know the gelato at BC Marketplace is and it's delicious. It already won one comparison I did against the gelato at a Hilton Head gelato store.

e had gelato at mama melrose last week and it was great.

Is the BC Marketplace off the lobby of the Beach Club? Or is it somewhere farther over by the villas?

It is off the lobby turn towards Epcot if you will while in the lobby and it is either from the hallway along the front or you can enter through the side entrance to the gift shop as they are connected.
