Pidapipó's Chocolate Gelato
by Lisa Valmorbida


Lisa Valmorbida owner of Pidapipo shares her recipe for her chocolate gelato with us. She says "This recipe was the hardest to get right and took me the longest of any of the flavours. I made so much chocolate gelato to get to this one it was crazy. My mum was the tester and she's really tough so I was happy when she finally approved this one. The biggest secret? Make sure to use the best chocolate you can find, never just cocoa powder. We use chocolate from Hunted+Gathered. They make the chocolate from scratch, from the beans and use no dairy. I've never tasted chocolate as good as theirs. It's strong, intense and not sweet, meaning you can really taste the bean."
