Auckland Wharf Innovation Gelato: Refreshing Osmanthus Pear Flavor Experience 🍦🍐

What’s it like to devour 8 gelatos at the pier in one go? 🤩

📍Gelatiamo (city pier)

I indulged in four gelatos:
1⃣️ Fig & Almond: A delightful blend with a nutty almond flavor, not too sweet, and a hit among the guys.
2⃣️ Oreo🍪: Surprisingly sweet, this creamy chocolate delight was a far cry from the expected bitterness, reminiscent of a luscious chocolate candy.
3⃣️ Pear & Chocolate🍐🍫: The refreshing pear perfectly balanced the richness of the chocolate, creating a harmonious and delectable treat.

4⃣️ Osmanthus🌼: My first taste of osmanthus-flavored ice cream, complete with bits of the flower on top. It was exactly as I imagined—utterly delicious.

Then, I sampled four sorbets:
5⃣️ Lemon🍋: The most tangy of the bunch, it melted quickly but left an addictively zesty sensation that made me shiver with delight!
6⃣️ Raspberry🍓: The second most sour, this berry-packed sorbet is a perennial favorite. When you need a pick-me-up, its tartness never disappoints.

7⃣️ Pink Pineapple🍍: Coming in as the third most sour, this sorbet was incredibly tasty, boasting a fresh, tropical pineapple aroma.
8⃣️ Mango🥭: A universally safe and satisfying choice, mango never fails to please ✌🏻

In total, I managed to finish 4 scoops, one waffle, one banana split, and a gelato shake (the blueberry 🫐 one was also exceptionally good!).

It felt like I had consumed a month’s worth of ice cream in one sitting 😆. Overall, it was an incredible experience. Before leaving, I spotted their new lavender and rose flavors. A quick taste test confirmed they were just as amazing!

Most importantly, the afternoon by the pier, with the gentle sea breeze, the chirping of birds, the lively chatter, and the melodies in the air, created the perfect, relaxing atmosphere.
