Wonderful ice cream places in Paris for visitors to try this summer! (apart from Berthillon!)


one of my favorite Parisian guides offers a few of her choices for some new places to try ice cream in Paris.
Pierre Hermé has introduced his new ice cream and sorbet collection and his flavors are just as intense as his macaroons. Here are his creations to try:
• Ispahan: Litchi and rose sorbet with raspberries
• Caramel au Beurre Salé: Caramel ice cream with salted butter
• Plentitude: Chocolate ice cream with flecks of chocolate and fleur-de-sel
• Satine: Orange, passion fruit and cream cheese
• Montebello: Pistachio ice ream with strawberry sorbet

An unusual name, but incredible ice cream is Grom. Originally from Torino, Grom uses all-natural flavorings, which include growing some of the organic fruit they use in their sorbets and graniti, grinding up vivid-green Sicilian pistachios for the gelato and exquisite hazelnuts from Piedmont with Venezuelan chocolate for their silky-smooth version of Gianduja.

Le Bac à Glace tucked away behind the Bon Marché is an unassuming glacier which boasts all-natural ice creams. Avocado, mango, fig and blackberry to name a few all with bits of fruit inside.
