Chester’s Krum Gelato has landed a prestigious three-star Great Taste Award.
The artisan gelateria, located by The Cross in Chester's historic city centre, has achieved the milestone by securing the prestigious award for its signature pistachio gelato.
It is the highest accolade possible from the Guild of Fine Food's internationally renowned scheme.
Owners Fabrizio Gobbato and Valentina Aviotti have joined the exclusive ranks of culinary excellence, with their pistachio gelato earning recognition among just 1.9% of more than 14,000 entries nationwide to receive the coveted three-star rating.
It was described by judges as "exquisite." Of these few three-star winners, only a tiny handful are gelato—a testament to the exceptional quality of Krum’s product.
The three-star award requires unanimous agreement amongst the expert judging panel that the product is of exceptional quality, with judges describing it as a product so outstanding that they would seek it out and recommend it unreservedly.
"We're absolutely over the moon," said Fabrizio Gobbato, co-owner of Krum Gelato.
"To achieve this recognition on our very first entry feels quite surreal. We hope this makes the Chester community proud and honours our Italian culinary traditions at the highest level."
