Good For You Gelato at VIXI in Coral Gables

For VIXI owner Melissa Stam, gelato is in her roots. Stam's great grandfather, Giovanni Rattazzi, opened a gelato parlor in his home city of Genoa in 1865 and her shared passion for gelato inspired her to open Coral Gables’ gelateria VIXI more than a century later. VIXI proudly boasts a large selection of authentic and healthy Italian gelato made without any artificial flavorings, colorings or additives, using only fresh natural ingredients. Flavors run the gamut from traditional varieties like chocolate, vanilla and hazelnut, to the more funky like parmesan cheese and pesto with basil sauce flavored gelato. Lactose-free sorbets are also available. Curious to know what the difference is between gelato and ice cream? And how exactly it gets its intense smooth flavor?
