The best ice cream shops Paris 12th 75012

Established in the neighbourhood since 1947, Raimo is a well-known address for locals around Place Daumesnil! Created by the Raimondo family and sold and renovated in 2008, it has all the hallmarks of a chic and cosy brasserie. It's one of the few places in this part of Paris where you can enjoy a good artisanal ice cream. There's a wide choice of flavours (around forty), all made on the premises without colourants and using only fresh fruit. The house adapts to the seasons and trends of the moment, and has no shortage of creativity.

Behind this bizarre name is a whole range of ice cream sticks, produced with a minimum of 75% fresh fruit, a few drops of water and a hint of cane sugar. Period! Period! A simple recipe, inspired by American ice pops. What flavors are available? Basics - kiwi, raspberry, strawberry, pear... - and more sophisticated combinations - lemon-curcuma-ginger (a best-seller), strawberry-lime zest vanilla-vanilla-olive oil or apricot-orange flower- chia seeds. Possibility to customize your ice cream with chocolate. Oh yes, last thing: these frosted delicacies arrive from the Old Port of Marseille, where the company's laboratory is located.
