One of my favorite aspects of Italy is the authentic gelato. This frozen dessert is similar to ice cream, but it’s much richer in flavor (not to mention less fat and sugar content). Gelato comes in either a cup or a cone and its flavors widely range from creams to nuts to fruits. There are so many gelato shops in Rome; there’s practically one every corner. The dessert has to be eaten very fast outside because it melts rapidly under the searing weather. It can serve as a cheap, standalone snack or a perfect compliment to any meal.
