Best of Boston

1999 Best Ice Cream

Toscanini’s

You need not travel to Italy to taste the best. Each bite of Toscanini’s divine ice cream conjures memories of Italian piazzas, gelato peddlers, and starry summer nights. Simple is what these guys do best—chocolate, vanilla, and coffee as you’ve never tasted them. If you’re feeling adventurous, delve into sophisticated flavors like burnt caramel or cardamom.
