A Gelato Museum where to learn how to make a perfect ice cream

The Gelato Museum Carpigiani is broadly recognized as a center of cultural excellence dedicated to the understanding and study of the history, culture, and technology of gelato

After spending so many years abroad, I think today it is more frequent to find foreigners associating Italian culinary traditions to "Gelato" rather than to "pizza" and "spaghetti". In case you are interested in learning whether there is a reason for that or not, please be aware that in Italy, in Emilia Romagna, there is a beautiful Gelato Museum ready to welcome anybody interested in discovering the history behind this delicious art.

Inaugurated in September 2012 in Anzola dell'Emilia, the Gelato Museum Carpigiani is broadly recognized as a "center of cultural excellence dedicated to the understanding and study of the history, culture, and technology of gelato and the expertise of the innovators who drove its evolutions over the centuries".

The best way to enjoy this beautiful museum is by taking part to one of its guided tours. The experiences this place can offer are many, therefore it is recommended to pay attention while selecting the one you think will be more appealing.

Discovering Gelato is a program made for people interested in learning how to transform fresh fruit into an excellent gelato that can be made at home. During this course, the evolution of gelato production techniques will be covered.

Gelatology is the perfect workshop for the most curious gelato lovers, during which a wide range of gelato products will be presented: sorbets, milk-based gelato, express gelato, gelato treats, and gelato cakes.

Gelato MasterClass is the best option for people interested in being transformed into "gelato artisan for one day".

Gelato Tam Building is a full day activity mainly offered to professionals. Once divided into teams, participants will challenge each other in the creation of the most original flavor.

Taste the History of Gelato is the most classic tour, during which participants discover the roots of gelato and enjoy a delicious ice cream tasting at Carpigiani Gelato Lab.
