Maybe it's just me, but I swear the displays of gelato seem to grow larger and larger each time I visit Italy. The creations and new flavors are endless! I would never think to throw in a few coconut shells or melon slices to show off these mountains of creamy masterpieces . So many times I would see the attendant scoop into the gelato and I would hesitate to look for fear they would destroy this piece of edible art before I was able to get my shots.(pictures) Never fear. A few pats, quick movements with the hand and the mountain appeared again, just as lovely. Down the road, on the other side of the street were two more gelato stands. Then more and more!

Aren't those an amazing sight! Beautiful, and I love the slices of fruit that decorate each mountain!
I love how they have big pieces of fruit or cookies sticking out of the mound!
Gelato is something I can't eat, but love to admire. A real Italian gelato shop is like a sculpture garden!
tw~I wanted a bite of every mound I passed!
K&S~ I think it is pretty creative to toss the pieces of fruits directly on the display......
I so love Gelato...great for this 90 degree weather we are having in Boston right now
Wheresmymind~How are you! Good to hear from you. 90 degree weather? That sounds like us here in Florida! This was some great tasting stuff!
Wow! This is quite a spread.
Lydia~oh, so sorry you can't eat this . Just as well. One bite and you are hooked!
Simona~makes you want to dive right in, don't you think? Worse than a candy store!
I could just dive into that. It all looks amazing though I am especially drawn to the cantelope flavor. The orange is just calling my name.
I love Gelato! What better way to beat th heat? Plus the flavor choices are usually more my style than what is offered at the typical icecream shop!
I love these sinful Gelato. When I was in Italy, I had at least 2 per day. Couldn't afford more back then as they were very expensive.
I'm not a big ice cream fan, but gelato makes my mouth water. Great pictures of Tuscany.
Hope you are doing well and best wishes from the USA!
I dream of Gelato... nothing like it!
I love Gelato Stands in Italy. They serve Big Big scoop
