Head to Pozzetto for seriously good gelato, made daily in small batches. And for an added bonus, some of the best espresso in Paris. Their second location, Pozzetto Salato, is a small Italian epicerie with salty treats and sandwiches to complement the sweets.

Lindsey Tramuta (2012) “…each of the 12 all-natural flavors prepared daily in small quantities are exceptional. Pistachio, gianduja (chocolate and hazelnut) and fior di latte are Maura’s favorites and some of the most popular flavors.”
Barbra Austin (2009) “…12 flavors, all fairly traditional, made daily in small batches.”
Clotilde Dusoulier (2008) Recommended in Clotilde’s Edible Adventures in Paris
David Lebovitz (2007) “…simply the best gelato in Paris.”
Chrisoscope (2007) “Glaces toujours bonnes, à la limite de la fusion, mais juste ce qu’il faut…”
Sad to say I think they no longer have a location in the 17th, so with the closure of La Marquisette, that leaves the 17th empty on your ice cream shop-by-arrondissement list. I will keep searching! 🙁
Thanks for your precious advice.
Pozetto was by far the best gelato I ever had in my life.
I love gelato and I never miss any opportunity to taste it wherever I go, but Pozzetto’s Gianduja and the fresh fruit sherbets are heavenly good.
