Dassie, the Italian ice cream chain’s store at Calle Triana 36, Las Palmas 📍 has been included in a list of more than 100 of the best heladerías in Spain.
The article in El País was compiled from recommendations made by some of the best ice cream makers. It features heladerías from the mainland, peninsular, as well as three in the Canary Islands:
- Menester Ice Cream, Puerto de la Cruz, in Tenerife
- + Di un Gelato, Puerto Rico and Puerto de Mogán
- Dassie, Calle Triana 36 📍
Dassie has several stores in Italy; however the Calle Triana branch in Las Palmas is their only one in Spain, so far.
The recognition shows the growing reputation of the Canary Islands’ artisan food scene. While the islands are best known for their traditional cuisine, local producers are increasingly earning national recognition for modern, handcrafted products.
For residents and holidaymakers alike, these three parlours offer more than just a refreshing treat on a hot summer’s day. They showcase the creativity, quality and passion that are helping put the Canary Islands firmly on Spain’s culinary map.
