Whenever friends are visiting, or Laura and I just have a sweet tooth, our go to is Dolcezza Gelato – the best gelato/ice cream in DC, period. More importantly though, it is a local DC startup that does everything with love. They produce their gelato daily in small batches, using the best available ingredients: local fruits, herbs, nuts, cheese, milk, and cream. Most ingredients are grown locally by their farmer friends, who hand-pick their produce at peak ripeness before bringing it to the market the next day. Dolcezza is sold at local stores, farmers markets, and at their eight local coffee shops. The best flavors are… all of them. And as a bonus, they are Argentine so you can get the best alfajores in town. For a touching video about their history, visit www.SlavisGroup.com/Dolcezza.
