Siciliansk Is
Bakery & coffeeNørrebro, Copenhagen
Gelato on the Sicilian model at Skjolds Plads — in season only.

Siciliansk Is makes gelato the Sicilian way: fewer air bubbles, stronger flavour, less sweetness. Pistachio and almond are the two people come for, and there is a queue on Skjolds Plads as soon as it turns warm.
The ice cream is made in house and organic, and the shop has two addresses — this one in Nørrebro and one in Vesterbro on Skydebanegade. The selection is smaller than in the big ice cream shops, and that is part of the idea.
They open through the summer half of the year and close down for winter. The shop writes on its own page that it is closed for the season and opens again in spring 2027, so do not count on it outside summer.
It suits an afternoon in Nørrebro when you are out anyway, and anyone who wants to taste the difference between gelato and ordinary ice cream. The square in front is a good place to sit.
