Thank God you’re wearing an elastic waistband.
We tried the three most popular ice cream brands in the Cyclades to find out which one makes the best:
We tasted the best ice-creams in Santorini, Naxos, Paros and Antiparos.
Lolita’s Gelato in Santorini 8/10
”We were right about the creaminess. But the texture of the ice cream was just slightly off. It was a little more icy than smooth.”
Vicky’s Ice cream in Antiparos 8.5/10
”The flavor’s pretty spot-on, but each one makes you wish there was more: more mix-ins, more ribbons of peanut butter or caramel or whatever it’s promising.”
Nonna Cream Ice cream in Paros 9/10
”It was extremely creamy, the vanilla flavor was both strong and authentic, and the ice cream itself had a smooth texture. Super crispy handmade cone.”
Mitatos Handcrafted Ice Cream in Naxos 8/10
”It lives up to its claims, but it’s more of the dessert you eat when you’re trying to be healthy, not necessarily the dessert you crave.”
Nonna in Paros was our top choice because of its creaminess and rich flavor, with Vicky’s in Antiparos coming in a close second.
