Italian gelato prices rose sharply in three years

Gelato prices in Italy have surged by 20-30% over the past three years, impacting consumers as summer approaches. This increase is making the popular treat more expensive for Italians. The rising cost of ingredients like milk, butter, and eggs is the primary driver behind the price hikes. A kilogram of artisanal gelato can now cost up to 28 euros, and cones in tourist areas may exceed 5 euros. "Pomeriggio Cinque News" reported on the issue, gathering opinions from citizens who expressed mixed feelings about the price increases, with some finding the cost excessive.
