Cool comfort: Why Australia loves its gelato (even in winter) - SilverKris

"A farm-based creamery on the Atherton Tablelands that showcases biodynamic, pasture-raised milk from the Mungalli family, this spot turns its organic cream into velvety ice cream with a strong sense of place. Tropical and regionally inspired flavours shine—the Daintree blending dark chocolate with tangy Davidson’s plum, tropical ginger with fennel and raspberry, and mangoes and cream—each scoop framed as a tribute to careful farming and community stewardship." - Victoria Khroundina

This place has the best ice-cream I have ever had. I tried the blueberry and basil and liked very much that I came back the next day. The milk used is locally sourced. Highly recommended if you are in Cairns. Friendly service as well.

This has got to be the best ice cream I have eaten in a very long time!!! We had the blueberry and basil and the raspberry and fennel, both flavours were so unique and delicious. There is a rich creaminess to this ice cream that make it so good. The milk is locally sourced from their farm which might be the winning factor. We visited this place three times in the two days we were here. Must try when visiting Cairns!

By far some of the best ice cream! Loved the blueberry and basil flavor. ❤️ The short wait was well worth it for this tasty treat on a hot and humid evening while strolling around. I was surprised all flavors did not contain lactose and there was an abundance of flavors that are out of the ordinary. Update: If I could give a sixth star I would. Went back for a thick shake. It was mesmerizing for my taste buds.

OMG, they are all lactose free!!!! 😁😁😁 Joyous!!! ...And the flavours!!! 🫶🫶🫶 The staff were super friendly and the cafe/icecream parlour was super cute!!! IDK if it was the biodynamic milk, or the love in it, but I was able to eat a scoop and no tummy issues 😊😊 They have so many drink options too, that we didn't even get to look at, we were so excited about the icecream 😅 I had the choux icecream puff with ginger icecream, butterscotch sauce and shivered almonds. Chef's kiss 💋

They have a full list of ingredients available that anyone with allergies can read, showing great awareness and inclusivity. The ice cream is peanut-free and mostly lactose free. It’s also so creamy and absolutely delicious. So good!!

They have a good selection of delicious ice cream and very friendly service, and we visited three times during our stay in Cairns. The option to add generous chunks of honeycomb made it even better. I really appreciate that they use real spoons, not disposable ones, for samples, to support sustainability.
