Bella's Helado De Coco & Italian Ice

"Bella’s is a new Italian ice and helado de coco shop in Humboldt Park that opened last Saturday. Grab a helado de coco (which comes in a coconut) and stroll around the neighborhood. Or better yet, check out a Gator game at Little Cubs Field. The Humboldt Park Gators are an all-girls baseball team, and this is their inaugural season. Check out their schedule here." - adrian kane

"Helado De Coco As far as we’re concerned, ice cream season can’t come soon enough. So we wasted no time visiting Bella’s, a new Italian ice spot that just opened in Humboldt Park. This place focuses on helado de coco, a Puerto Rican coconut sorbet. And it was a nice, light dessert perfect if you (like us) just ate way too much food. Coconut milk gives the ice richness, making it creamier than a typical Italian ice, and it was sweet without being cloying. Plus, it came in a little coconut shell, which was just cute. In other words, if you’re a fan of coconut, make sure to put this place on your summer itinerary." - adrian kane

"Bella’s owner Adrian Pacheco features both Italian ice and helado de coco — a Puerto Rican dessert that’s a cross between coconut Italian ice and coconut ice cream — made from a family recipe that dates back to 1975. Flavor options include watermelon, lemon, passionfruit and chilli pepper-topped mangonada." - Naomi Waxman, Eater Staff
