Gelato parlour Swoon to open first Welsh location

An artisan gelato parlour, which offers handmade ice cream, speciality desserts and Italian coffee from Naples, is opening it's first Welsh branch in Cardiff in the new year.

Swoon launched in Bristol in 2016 by the Forte family and has since grown to have parlours in Bath, Oxford and London on Oxford Street. Speaking about Swoon, Bruno Forte said: "My Italian family introduced handmade gelato to the UK over a hundred years ago and Swoon is very much a family business with my wife, mother and sister all involved. That family history and love of gelato drives what we do - it’s why we focus so much on provenance and using only best and purest ingredients in the flavours we craft."

Coming to the historical Duke Street Arcade this autumn, Swoon has flavours such as pistachio, chocolate sorbetto, and the award-winning hazelnut. With new flavours being explored, Swoon has been recognised with more than 85 Great Taste stars.
