"There aren't many foods that hit the same levels of taste, nostalgia, feel-good factor and accessibility in the way ice cream does. Whether it's a getting a 99 from an ice cream van after school or enjoying an artisanal scoop of gelato on a European summer holiday, ice cream = good times, a little luxury that's light on the wallet (the current cost of a Mr Whippy is a topic of debate for another day)."
"Run by chef James and nurse Lindsay, Marcelo's is a luxury small-batch ice cream biz based in SE London. Their ice cream is churned gelato-style but is made from creamy oat milk, meaning its actually plant-based. The pair do weekly flavour drops - previous tubs have included elderflower kombucha, gooseberry cardamom fool, affogato caramel, and flat peach & oolong - and if you can't get it on order, you can find them at popping up at different markets."
Ice cream combines taste, nostalgia, accessibility and feel-good appeal. London offers a wide range from classic vanillas and chocolates to wildly unusual flavours and artisanal gelatos. Independent small-batch makers focus on cool aesthetics, unusual flavours, seasonal drops and pop-up markets. Marcelo's produces luxury gelato-style ice cream from creamy oat milk, offering weekly flavour drops such as elderflower kombucha, gooseberry cardamom fool and flat peach & oolong, and appears at markets. Chunk Provisions in Leyton balances classic flavours with experimental scoops like mushroom brown butter, plum rice pudding and black sesame soy, and sells Lamington gelato sandwiches.
