The crowd tucks in to delicious gelato<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Philippa Tarling of Horsington\u2019s Half Moon has branched out and has started Sherborne\u2019s first-ever Gelateria,- ECCO GELATO, which opened its doors to the\u00a0public on Thursday 6th October. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Judging by the traffic on Facebook,<\/a>\u00a0it has been a roaring success.<\/p>\n

Villagers and friends had a chance to sample the delights on the Tuesday before the opening, and unanimously pronounced it – excellent!<\/p>\n

Ecco Gelato is in Long Street, at the bottom of Cheap Street. It will sell a large variety of fabulous home-made gelatos, sorbets, and coffees, accompanied by very cool music from a state of the art music system. A powerful free wi-fi will make it an ideal place to relax, browse and catch up before or after shopping, or after school.<\/p>\n

Ecco Gelato will be open from 11 am until 10 pm every day.<\/p>\n

Ecco Gelato has been a team effort for several Horsington residents.
\nPhil Warren and his boys did the building and fitting out; George Matthews provided the identity and signwriting, Brenda Boyce did the upholstery, Kelly Chmielewski, Charley Walker and Lauren Burpitt from the Half Moon have joined the staff, \u00a0Richard Gaunt did the PR and promotion, and Tjden Lane took the photographs.<\/p>\n

Philippa Tarling put herself through an intensive course at the Gelato University in Bologna, Italy, to learn the complexities of the art of making high quality gelato.<\/p>\n

What is gelato exactly? Gelato is a high quality milk based \u201cice-cream\u201d that is made and sold fresh. It is not actually ice-cream and an artisan Gelatiere would be insulted if their product was labelled as such. Gelato is made from milk, and is softer, contains less fat and air , is denser, and has a warmer feel as it is served at minus 10- 12 Centigrade.<\/p>\n

All the varieties on sale at Ecco Gelato will contain locally-sourced milk and fresh fruits from local markets when in season. The products on offer will vary according to season and availability but will include gelato, sorbettas (made from fruit) 5 coffees, mocca, hot chocolate and tea. Everything will be freshly made on the premises.<\/p>\n

Philippa is in charge of production. Her \u201cLab\u201d at the rear of the premises is in full view of the customers who will be able to observe closely how gelato is made.<\/p>\n

Get down there and give your taste buds a treat!<\/p>\n
