Carlton, Get Ready For Your New Go-To Gelato Destination

Written by: Sophie Orgill

Pssst... Word is that there is a GLO up on Lygon Street (that is, a new GLO Gelateria of course!). The owners of the beloved Universal Restaurant on Lygon Street are taking a step into the dessert realm, and we are here for it. 

GLO Gelato will be offering 12 core flavours of italian-style artisanal small batch gelato, plus four regularly rotating specials. Speciality cakes are also on offer,  as well as a gelato cart available for events. Co-Owner, Alfredo Mercuri shared that “the core menu is comprised of our teams’ favourite flavours from childhood, as well as nostalgic flavours from around the world to help make our gelato memorable.”

If you are in the mood for a wholesome, naturally-indulgent sweet treat, try the Yogi Bear flavour, made with real Greek yoghurt and wild organic blueberry jam. GLO Gelato have also  just released their winter-warming Hot Custard Crumble—perfect for the chilly nights. This comfort dessert is a blend of hot apple pie filling, Italian custard, and the GLO crumble. 

This new gelato hot-spot will show how much self control you really have, as it is almost impossible to walk past without stopping by (don’t beat yourself up, we have been unsuccessful so far too!).

Find GLO Gelato 131 Lygon Street, Carlton. The gelateria opens at 12pm every day, check the website for closing hours.
