Go get this stuff. Now. It is freakin’ amazing! Ciao Bella Blackberry Cabernet Sorbet = heaven on earth. I know I usually profess my love for all things chocolate here on my blog, but I will make exceptions for items that contain wine. When shopping at Whole Paycheck Foods last week, I noticed that the pints of Ciao Bella were on sale 2 for $6. Yeah, not a huge sale, but good enough for me! I picked up the Blood Orange, which I reviewed here and the Blackberry Cabernet Sorbet.

The ingredients are simple:
BLACKBERRIES, ORGANIC EVAPORATED CANE JUICE,
CABERNET, WATER, LEMON JUICE, PECTIN.
The most important ingredient is in bold face and is the 3rd ingredient listed. My likey. I honestly didn’t expect to like this as much as I do. I expected to like it, for it to be a refreshing treat on a sticky hot day, but not to wake up thinking about it and planning trips across town to Whole Foods to get more.
Cian Bella offers a wide variety of flavors, but not all of them are gluten-free. Take care when purchasing and read the label, as it will be clearly marked “gluten-free”. More ingredient and flavor information can be seen here.
Have you tried any of the Ciao Bella products? If so, what did you try? Do you have a favorite?
My son and me, November 2000. This is before we were gluten-free/diagnosed Celiac.
Sounds delish! I might have to try making that kind at home! I haven't tried any of their products as I always gravitate toward the gelatos when they're on sale… ahhhh, creamy gelato.
I haven't tried it yet… but I love the packaging. I'm going to look for the blackberry cabernet… that one looks promising!
Thanks for sharing!

super easy to make too! or if you ever find yourself in Sonoma the Cheese Factory on the square make it fresh and serve it from their gelato/ice cream counter. so good it will change your life!!!
