Where to buy bread cakes chocolates ice cream Veneto

In his bakery in the center of Burano, a small, old-fashioned and deliciously vintage shop, for many years Giorgio Garbo has known the secret of making the best bussolà or buranelli of the lagoon (sold in retail or in small, practical bags for gifts). You'll smell the fragrance of these delicious little cookies, either S-shaped or ring-shaped, right at the end of the street. All the cakes and pastries are made the old-fashioned way. We also like the meringues, the almond tarts and the apple strudels. Charming welcome.

Tonolo is a historical pastry shop, a discreet storefront that has existed since the late ^19th century. Naturally, it is also one of the Venetians' favorites! You can come here to enjoy a coffee with a delicious slice of cream pie, or to take away some sweets, chocolate, pistachio, or cherry or apricot jam cakes. Tonolo's specialties include meringue cake andfrittelle (sugar doughnuts), which are celebrated during Carnival. A real treat!

With its vintage decor, it's a favorite of locals and tourists looking for a good ice cream and a break on the quays of Dorsoduro. It's not the trendiest place, but it's a treat! Now's the time to order the local delicacy: gianduiotto, a chocolate specialty swimming in whipped ice cream. Then, with the Zattere as your terrace, you can relax on a blue and aluminum chair and enjoy the sunset over Giudecca, for example.

Now a ubiquitous ice cream shop in Italy, Grom has not given in to the excesses of mass distribution. The principle is simple and rigorous: fresh and seasonal products for this establishment with a pure and modern design. The gelati, whose flavors change with the seasons, are simply exquisite. Its crema di Grom (custard with cookie chips and chocolate chips) has become its iconic flavor. In winter, don't miss the opportunity to try the creamy hot chocolate. Four addresses in the heart of the lagoon.

The queue is often long in front of the counterold style but, rest assured, the service is fast. Since 1939, this gelateria, unlike any other, has been known in Verona for its sweet treats. So order a giandujotto (chocolate ice cream + melted chocolate + fresh cream + hazelnuts!) or a pinguino (vanilla and chocolate stick), and eat them while walking through the streets of the old town. Depending on your taste, you can also opt for a fruit verrine, a tiramisu or an iced millefeuille, among other sweets.

On the road to the station, the glacier il Gelatone is a compulsory step for those who are preparing to leave Venice. In this way, you will leave with the sweet memories of sesame, honey and pink grapefruit scents. 

Along the Rio Terà San Leonardo, this sweet haven is the best surprise before or after a long walk in Cannaregio. Venetians stop here for a coffee, a brioche or a spritz at the counter, but also for delicious slices of pizza to be enjoyed at any time of the day. Meringues, nougats, marzipan and dry cakes are also on the menu, each one tastier than the last. And during the holiday season, each time of year has its own cake: fugassa at Christmas and chiacchiere at Carnival, for example.

It's impossible to miss this street-side gelateria. The line that forms in front of it in summer says it all... And with good reason: this is Murano's first artisanal ice cream parlour, and its ice creams are divine! The quality of the ingredients used, the know-how of the maestro, the subtle, even unusual flavors (mushroom, juniper, white truffle...), and the freshness of the flavors all contribute to the success of this artisan ice-cream maker, which delights passers-by at the hottest times of the day. Try the simplest, the lemon-basil sorbet, which quenches the palate with joy.

Almost a century old, the most iconic bakery in the lagoon has come a long way since its creation in 1924. It now has eight locations in Venice. The Santa Croce store is located in the shadow of the San Giacomo dell'Orio basilica. This panificio works non-stop, serving fresh bread and pastries made with organic flours, but also slices of pizza with a wide variety of toppings, as well as coffees and cappuccinos. Just across the street and also part of the Majer group, you'll find the Cantinetta, for the aperitif hour.

On the Strada Nova, the ice creams are good and everyone knows it. There is a crowd, everyone wants one and finally, in order not to make those who are waiting behind wait too long, we decide quickly, we choose at random and... we always have a good surprise! Without going into the eccentric, the traditional perfumes are there, few in number, but well made and tasty. So don't hesitate to try a vanilla/chocolate cone or a strawberry/lemon cup. A nice variation is the homemade vanilla or chocolate magnums, covered with small chips.

As with all the good places in Venice, this one doesn't look like much. And it's not here yet that Venice will succeed in ruining you. Go to the Squero San Trovaso (gondola repair shop), near the Accademia. You'll easily recognize this little store by its blue-and-white-striped marquee. Refreshing colors for devilishly creamy ice creams, which bring Venetians from far and wide to savor their gelato sitting on the edge of the little canal. No flavor here would disappoint. We'll let you be the judge!

This well known gelateria is located just behind the Basilica of Santa Maria Gloriosa dei Frari. They serve you with a smile. The store is divided into two distinct counters: on one side, the ice cream counter, which is a must, and on the other side, the one reserved for pizzas, paninis and buns. To return to the ice creams, they are certainly appetizing but especially made from natural flavors. They are rich in flavors and taste. So much so that everyone comes back to it!

Close to the Rialto Bridge and the San Marco district, this store located on Castello has what it takes to make you envious! Pralines, sugared almonds, ganaches, chocolate fountains and even hot chocolate to take away for a few euros: this is certainly the best artisan of the discipline in Venice. Come in for a gift idea or simply for a treat. The ganaches are made with the finest cocoa, spices, candied fruits and coffee for an irresistible assortment.

Did you know that it is in Verona that the pandoro is produced, this sweet star-shaped bun sprinkled with icing sugar, a must for Christmas? Well, the Barini pastry shop has been making it its speciality for over 50 years. Just a few steps from the bullring, Barini is also a cafeteria where you can sip a creamy cappuccino or a strong espresso and bite into little cakes with names as bewitching as their flavour: Romeo's Kisses (with almond and butter cream), Juliet's Kisses (with hazelnut and chocolate cream).

Right in the heart of the historic center, here's an excellent place to enjoy a deliciousice cream after strolling along the ramparts of Cittadella. In addition to more or less traditional flavors, such as hazelnut, pistachio and strawberry, the pumpkin with blackberry slivers is totally original. The store's specialty, however, is ice cream dedicated to the most famous of spreads! Got it? To make you stand out even more, there are also verrines and sushi-like ice cream slices.

With its red and white striped front, this typical little pastry shop produces high quality Venetian cookies, made according to the traditional Burano know-how, as in the time of Carmelina Palmisano, an endearing nonna with a passion for good things. Among the cake recipes are the unmissable Bussolà, Zaletti, Essi and Moretti! Buy in bulk or in bags/batches. You'll smell the scent of warm cookie in the air from the end of the street. Nougats, meringues, shortbread with jam among other delicacies that might tempt you.

Located on a small square a few meters from the pier, this artisanal bakery-pastry shop has become a reference in the Lido, as much for the locals as for the tourists. In addition to the location and the modern decor, it is the products that we appreciate. There is a selection of homemade breads and pastries, delicious cakes to take away as well as a large choice of salty snacks to heat up on the spot (pizza slices or focaccia among others). The store being relatively narrow, it is not possible to eat inside, but who cares!

Nice gelateria in the Castello area, where such addresses are rare. Well appreciated by the locals and the tourists who discover this little gem, who like to pick up a cone and then take a bite while strolling along the Riva degli Schiavoni. La Mela Verde offers a wide range of refreshing and quality sorbets: strawberry, raspberry, grapefruit, lemon, kiwi and of course... green apple (the name of the shop)! The wafers on the cones are perfect. When the ice cream meets the fruit, we crack without hesitation!

Certainly the best ice in the city, which is tasting during the beautiful season, when the sun illuminates the narrow streets, and ice by hand, we can walk a nonchalant step in the city of Romeo and Juliet… Top perfumes, which regularly renew over the seasons. Classics (coffee, chocolate, hazelnut) are a safe value. Guaranteed ingredients 100% freshness and high quality, ancestral know-how, and a business that works hard!

Gourmands, forget your diet before approaching this Ali Baba's cave. A French-style pastry shop in the heart of Verona that concocts mille-feuilles, macaroons (try the one with cappuccino) and mont-blanc, as well as Sicilian cannoli, fruit tarts and brioches filled to perfection. Available at any time of the day, from breakfast to aperitif. At the back of the store, a small tea room allows the impatient to taste these delicacies accompanied by hot drinks.
