Reviewers rave about the vibrant, silky Gelato all'arancia e mango, calling it a burst of pure, sun-drenched fruit. The overall vibe is one of playful, artisanal bliss, perfect for a joyful, refreshing escape.
“This is Jamie Lannister's golden hand — orange and mango flavour. It's a normal popsicle but the flavour is very concentrated. It really feels like biting into an orange and a mango. Very good. €1.50, a bit too much for the price, but it was worth tasting the Roca ice creams.”

Gelato al Cioccolato e Olio d'Oliva
This is Columbus's index finger — chocolate and olive oil flavour. It's really dense, full of chocolate to bite into, covered in chocolate of excellent quality, and you can feel a hint of olive oil. It's good.
