Why you need a Snowflake on a Sunny London Day!

What’s better than a delicious, creamy gelato on a  sunny London day? Each time I’ve been through Soho on my food adventures (see my reviews of Burger and Lobster, Bubbledogs, Wahaca and Wagamama), I’ve been teased with this store front on Wardour Street…

I would always pause, drool through the window like a puppy, and wonder what was in ‘luxury’ gelato. One day I popped in just to have a quick glance to tease myself further.

Not only did the gelato look silky smooth, but also the interior was sleek and sexy too!

On the last gorgeous, sunny London day, I decided the curiosity had to end. I made a date with Mr. Sunny for dinner and GELATO!

Mr. Sunny and I were overwhelmed with all the unique, mouth-watering options.

Stracciatella, Amarena, Honeycomb Crunch, Pistachio

I sampled, verrrry thoroughly, many of the Chef’s Specials and other flavours… Nugget, White Chocolate and Strawberry, Oreo Biscuit, and Dark Chocolate Sorbet. It was soooo tough to decide.

Mr. Sunny picked the Coconut and Pistachio.

And I had the Nugget and Oreo Biscuit…

Now I understand what luxury gelato is. Snowflake hand makes their gelato in their Soho and Bayswater boutiques each day. They use the freshest ingredients, and you can taste the difference!

I was excited about also sampling their new Spring flavours, floral Violet and Rose Petal Gelato, but they were sold out that night. So, I decided on this comfort prize…

Roland made it special for me. It’s a chocolate shake combination of chocolate mint and chocolate chips with luscious lashings of chocolate on top. Did I mention that it has chocolate? 😉

I drank it all. Wouldn’t you?

Important scoops you should know about Snowflake:

– They’re the first gelateria in London to offer 100% organic flavours. The new range includes: Hazelnut, Almond, Chocolate and Classic Vanilla.

– They have a ‘Guilt-free’ range of fat, dairy and gluten free sorbettos, containing less than a teaspoon of added sugar. Flavours include: Peach, Pear and Apple and Elderflower.

– They SUPPORT CHARITIES and SCHOOLS with discounted rates!

– They definitely encourage you to go back for seconds…

A few days after my date with Mr. Sunny, I went back to the gelateria. I couldn’t resist the Original Snowflake and Biscotto.

Check out Snowflake on the next sunny London day. Also…. Don’t tell Mr. Sunny I went back without him! He’d be very jealous! 😉

    This is one of my favourite places for gelato in London too! I was so stuck deciding what flavours to go for!

      Thank you for reading and commenting! I tried about 15 flavours and agree it was a HARD choice. Good thing you can combine two!

    There’s so much good food in Wardour Street. Have you been to Gelatorino in Covent Garden yet? If not, GO.

      No. Haven’t heard of it. I’ve been to Scoop and La Gelateria in Covent Garden. Do you know what street it’s on?

    Yum yum yum! I have been here on a lunch break before. A bit of sneaky ice cream mid week 😉

    OMG chocolate & mint are my absolute favorites and the shake with toppings looked amazingly delicious. If I close my eyes, I can almost feel the curls melting in my mouth. Wouldja please add Sno-flake to my places-to-go-in-London list? Will have to look for a comparable place near me until then.
