The staff of the big ice cream shop Caffè e Gelato at the Potsdamer Platz Arkaden shopping centre are all Italians. Being ice cream makers by trade, guarantees genuine Italian ice cream with tradition. Next to their multitude of mouth-watering ice cream creations, the place is synonymous with creamy Cappuchines and professionally-made Latte Macchiato. This safe haven will have saved some tired Christmas shoppers, since this paradise for coffee and ice cream is open all year round!

Summer means of course "gelato". Next to your usual flavours of chocolate, vanilla or lemon, they also have premium varieties like mascarpone with cookies or passion fruit-mango. A novelty in the store are sugar-free ice creams or lactose-free creations. People preferring organic products are equally cared for, for example with pistacchio ice cream, made in accordance with the EU Organic Guidelines. A lot of their ingredients come straight from Italy, like their pistaccios, candied oranges or almonds from Sicily, hazelnuts from Venetia or Piemontese chestnuts.
