    I have never wrote a comment, but firstly thanks for your videos!
    I am an Italian girl studying in Germany, and I have immediately noticed that gelato is big thing in Germany.
    Related to differences with Italy, I have noticed that many people eat it at every time in day in Germany (from the morning to evening), while in Italy gelato is mostly for a sweet break in the afternoon. It maybe explains the first place position for Germany as producer.
    Regarding the price of gelato, that’s true, in Italy is more expensive (2.50/3€ for two scoops) and not common to ask for 1 scoop of gelato.
    Very final thing, Germans cannot definitely live not without cappuccino, at least what I have seen till now.
    By the way, thanks again for your videos. Useful and helping me to get into German culture more smoothly:)
    P.S.: the technique “see if there is line outside a Gelateria” to understand if it’s good or not, it’s sooo used even in Italy

    Greetings from München!
    I have an Italian gelato place near my house, it costs 1.8 per scoop, and in Munich I also went to places that were 1.3 and 1.4 per scoop (to be honest, I haven't seen anything above 2€ per scoop, but I am sure they exist).

    Favourite flavour on its own would be either Joghurt-Kirsch oder Melone while in a mix at least one of the scoops has to be vanilla and one chocolate (like in our "Riesentüte" where you have a cone with 3 scoops, whipped cream, wafer and either chocolate-, strawberry- or caramel-sauce).

    When I was young we had an ice cream dealer who made scoops out of two or sometimes even three flavors for us kids who had only money for one or two scoops. And those where the times where Pistachio was considered an exotic flavor. 😊
    Fun fact: Germans do their air quotes the same way as Americans do. 😉
    For me a spaghetti ice can‘t go without the whipped cream beneath the vanilla ice cream spaghettis, because I especially like it, when the whipped cream starts to freeze. 🤤

    Many Eisdielen in Germany use pre-produced preparations that they only have to add milk and other fresh ingredients to (just like most bakeries use industry pre-mixes for their bread doughs). These mixtures are a huge market in food wholesale. Unfortunatley, this is especially true for many hip pop-up ice cream parlors that offer vegan alternatives and such. People who run those in most cases are no trained ice makers. But, of course, there are still many gems of traditional Eisdielen who stick to family recipes and quality of old, too, as well as young people eager to learn the traditional craft and work without artifical additives etc.. My favorite flavors are Stracciatella as well as sometimes (on colder days) cinnamon.

    #1It is worth to mention that: MOST of the people working for italians in these Eis cafes, are Brazilian-born-italians who are attracted by the salary and working conditions that, although bad for German standards, allow a couple to come back to Brazil with enough money to buy houses, cars and other investments within 2 summers. I personally know a handful of them that own 5+ flats and some have their own Eis cafes.
    #2 My favorite flavours are Malaga and Amarena.
    #3 And people, tip them if the service is nice. They had a hard time in the last 2 years. Now I tip even when I buy a single scoop.
    #4 A friend who worked in a place in Bochum, said that the Italian owner of his former workplace instructed him to pour a couple of spoons of used coffee ground in each bucket of vanilla. It would make it look like better quality eis with real vanilla. Then yes. No queue, no good.

      Nordmanns Eisfabrik once had some ice cream (probably "gelato") made with Greek yoghurt and raisins and some other things (don't remember), it was great. Not sure whether it was a one time experiment, but I never saw it again (haven't been to Flingern that often for the last few years, so maybe I missed it).
      The place is definitely one of the best in Düsseldorf, and whenever I was there, the queue was shorter than my average experience with the Eisschmiede in Unterbilk (my sample size is small, and the visits were not exactly randomised, so it might be some sampling artifact)

      @@simplegermany I did a little quick math and the inflation (based on the data by statista) between 2000 and 2021 was over that a little over 2 decade span ca 38,3%, meaning, if in 2000 at my local Eisdiele one scoop of ice cost 1DM (or 0,5€), that would be equivalent to roughly 0,7€. Now, mind you, I come from a rural part of Germany with relatively low cost of living, but at the same time, over that period, the economy has boomed in my home region, meaning, that the cost of living (and therefore also the cost of labour) has probably grown much faster, than the inflation in Germany overall. Also, the gelato there is still quite affordable, it's gone over 1€ only by perhaps 2017, or around that time (I think it's now at 1,5€)

      Ich kann mich noch gut dran erinnern dass ich immer gesagt hatte ein Eis zu 0,60 Pfennig Und das waren drei Kugeln. Dann war es plötzlich ein Eis zu 75 ein Eis zu 90. Das war glaube ich ziemlich lange und dann wurde die eine DM Grenze gerissen Und drei Kugeln kosteten plötzlich 1,05 DM. Das müsste alles so im Zeitraum Mitte der siebziger bis Mitte der achtziger gewesen sein. Würde ich mal tippen.

    The great popularity actually only came after the Second World War, but actually already at the beginning of the 20th century gelatiere from the Dolomite valleys Zoldo and Cadore moved to Austria, Germany and the Netherlands to initially only sell their delicacies on ice cream carts. The trade is currently having problems with young people, along with other skilled trades. In addition to completely in-house production, starting with fresh ingredients according to secret recipes, the suppliers of the ice cream parlors also use ready-made convenient mixtures. They don't necessarily taste worse and the variety in the sales counter increases. In fact, it's almost always a sign that many different flavors of ice cream are based, at least in part, on pre-made mixes. I think the craziest trend is coming from Berlin, where the ice cream is made in portions in front of your eyes with -196°C frozen nitrogen. Personally, I ate my best ice cream in Sienna, Italy: Pistacchi!
