Burnt Cones Gelato in Clementi is a small-batch gelato shop known for handmade gelato and caramelised cones, rated 4.7 stars from 2,802 reviews. Founded in 2020 by two Carpigiani-trained makers, it offers same-day delivery and co-roasted coffee alongside the gelato.
Handmade gelato from a dedicated kitchen operates on different principles than commercial ice cream—the point is intensity, not volume. What matters is sourcing (dairy, chocolate, in-house roasted coffee), churn speed (slow enough to preserve structure), and temperature (held to let flavour bloom). The burnt cone isn't decoration but deliberate: caramelisation deepens aroma and creates contrast with cold gelato. A good gelato shop understands that small format works—tasting at peak intensity, not filling up. Seasonal offerings reflect what's available to work with. Regulars know their flavour: the single scoop they return for, the one that tastes different nowhere else.
Burnt Cones brings that intensity of handmade gelato to Clementi, with delivery to your door.
