And yes, I love ice cream as well.
I think Archimede used to include a free pack of gold bears with every purchase, not sure if they still do, but I guess I'll find out in a week or so.

Except to accompany dessert in which case
I've not tried the peanut butter one!

Really? I went to their factory in Vermont some years ago and didn't like any of their ice cream. I am more of a plain ice cream lover, vanilla or chocolate and maybe with some peanuts. I really enjoy Baskin Robins and Carvel. Also Twix, sneakers and Haagen Dazs ice cream is good.
Sometimes I eat ice cream in the winter too

I think i had some of this stuff when I visited Ireland. They had these stations along the road, and we would stop every time. I couldn't get enough of it.

I don't do chewy sweets if they contain animal based Gelatine ..... just went off the idea of eating that ingredient once and it stuck.
There are alternatives and I'll happily eat them though... just hard to find 'em.
I will pick up a bag of chewy sweets and immediately check the ingredient list and back they go if it's there.
(I am a meat eater before you ask, just fussy about what meat or parts of meat I eat)
As for the icecream , if it's creamy and cold , I'll have some, thank you doesn't even have to be that creamy, if it says icecream on the packet , I'm in.

one day last summer:
if I recall correctly:
Gelupo - Salted Caramel and a Dark Chocolate filled Panettone - not pictured were also two Vanilla "bon bons"
Amorino - Gianduju and Speculoos
Scoop - Melon and Lemon (sorbets)
Gelatorino - can't remember, was it Piedmont Pistacchio? Another Salted Caramel?
There were two other stops that I couldn't quite make.
I recommend you go and try some of this stuff.
I went through most of their selection at a trade show a couple of years back and every one was a hit for me, except maybe liqorice that was slightly funny on my palate.
