Time for Gelato | Life & Thyme

In meeting gelato in Florence, I think it was the dark chocolate folded in cremino that bid me goodbye after too few days for so many flavors this summer.

Wistful about those coni e coppetti, I was delighted to draw gelato for Life and Thyme for a story on gelato in the south of Italy, in Sabaudia.

Creamy curls scooped by the spade, inspired by lush billows of cremino.
I wanted an inventive way to showcase the flavors mentioned in Stef's story and loved getting to incorporate these windows that enchanted me on walks in Firenze.
Beautiful flavors to read about in Senior Editor Stef Ferrari's story.
Finally, here's an exterior shot of a square in the magical time of day that is the gelato hour. Read about this early evening Italian ritual on Life and Thyme!
