Sophia opened Nonna’s Gelato, where she produces gelato that is an ‘Italian/British fusion’, combining both traditional gelato processes from the UK and Italy.
Inspired by her grandmother, all batches are homemade. Churned and made by hand, 10p from the money made off all scoops sold also go to charity, making it not only taste good but do good too.

Soft serve served in cones with cotton candy may sound too good to be true, but Milk Train Cafe has perfected the sweet treat.
The ice-cream parlor’s sundaes are served on a cloud-like structure of cotton candy and decorated with a hand of popcorn, colourful sprinkles, and everything nice to create the ultimate instagrammable cone.
Located in Covent Garden, the ice cream shop is a must-see if you’re passing through London!
