To get the new years diet started off right...

My mom and her husband have sent me 6 pints of Capogiro Gelato for the holidays. You may remember me raving about this stuff this summer. They are a small company from Philadelphia and SH and I went to their shop back in July. The gelato is every bit as fabulous as I remembered. I picked the following flavors:

1. Black Walnut - Straight from Lancaster County , these nuts are strong and incredible. Perfect match with all the fall flavors.

2. Melograno - Seed by painstaking seed. Glorious pomegranate.

3. Nocciola Piedmontese Gelato - 100% Hazelnut paste from the Piedmont region of Italy .

4. Mint Stracciatella - Fresh sharp mint gelato with flecks of bittersweet chocolate. We make our mint gelato with swiss mint from an herb farm in Lansdale . My genius farmer is greenhousing the mint so we are not deprived throughout the winter.

5. Cioccolato Scuro - Dark, rich and bittersweet chocolate gelato.

6. Lime Cilantro - Hand squeezed Persian limes with Lancaster cilantro. Excellent!

Gelato tasting party anyone?
