Including sumptuous ice cream photos and a visual tour of Italy's famed gelaterie, GELATO! reveals the secrets of great gelato making for anyone longing for the sweet tastes of Italy.

 A beautifully photographed primer on making authentic Italian gelato using a home ice cream maker. Hardcover edition sold more than 30,000 copies.
