"If you’re looking for a delightful treat on a hot day, I highly recommend stopping by this ice cream and chocolate shop on Setas Street. The place is beautifully decorated, and they offer an impressive selection of delicious chocolates and sweet treats. The service was excellent, thanks to Miss Darly, who was incredibly friendly. The prices are great for the quality of the products. Overall, this is definitely a must-visit spot!"

"Cioccolato Puro d’Italia is a little cosy place, with a nice atmosphere and great hospitality offers delicious gelato with such a rich flavor, very creamy. Gelato quality is a different level and very reasonable price. Definitely best in town. I went there a few times as it was so good."

"I've never seen chocolate to drink in Italy but this one amazed my family, and the ice cream of pure chocolate, vegan (they your me 85%), really good and I usually don't like chocolate ice cream... Bravo"

"Sincerely this is the best ice-cream I've tried ever, since I discovered it in Alicante I even don't want to go for an ice-cream to any other place. All natural, homemade and delicious. Also the chocolates and spreads are amazing, my new addiction! The stuff is very kind and helpful and the place is incredibly cosy to be."

"I love it - the best ice cream in Alicante! Not too sugary, not too fatty, lots of milk free options and absolutely fantastic taste to suit everyone! Rich chocolate (all forms of it available, white, milk, hazelnut and dark ), real taste of strawberry, mango, pistachio is very popular, summer tastes like melon and watermelon - you name it! Very nice atmosphere and girls are always happy to see customers! Complete delight! We are now regular customers, as I can't compare the quality and taste to other gelaterias in Alicante and around. Love you guys! Always coming when in Alicante!"

"Best gelato in Alicante. We returned several times. My favourite combo was pistachio and pistachio cream. Another good combo was dark chocolate/orange and mango. Thank you for cooling us down so sweetly. Sorry we don’t have any photos the ice-creams were eaten too fast"

"Greatest and most creamy ice cream in Alicante. Trust me, I’ve tried all of them already. The fanciest place, the most inviting one and none is like Cioccolato Puro d’Italia ice cream (don’t make me talk about their amazing chocolates) but we’re in summer right now and ice cream is all we want hehehe. Greatest and most affordable price for the tastiest ice cream in town! Give it a try, if you want, you can get a chocolate treat for yourself as well but please, try their ice creams first! and you’ll be as happy as me! My most recommended flavors are: peanut butter, Cremini(I believe is written this way), the strawberry one, Melon, and my most recent discovery the coffee one is amazing! Try them all!"
