The story
Nestled on Via Umberto I in the quiet Sicilian town of Baucina, Agri Gelateria Fratelli di Marco has earned a dedicated following for its hyper-local approach to gelato. The family-run shop uses milk drawn exclusively from its own herd of Red Spotted cows, a detail that gives each batch a distinctly fresh, creamy base. Creator Salvo Guarneri calls it “a must-visit for the freshest, most authentic gelato in Sicily,” pointing directly to that on-site dairy as the source of its quality.
Guarneri singles out the almond and chocolate flavors as exceptional—Gelato alla Mandorla and Gelato al Cioccolato are clearly standouts—but also highlights a remarkable value: a €3 XXL brioche filled with gelato. It’s a casual, family-friendly spot with outdoor seating and takeout, offering a taste of local craftsmanship that feels both simple and extraordinary.

“Look at the size of this brioche — it's super soft and XXL. It weighs over 500 grams, I'm not kidding. The crazy thing is it costs €3, just like you see it. You can choose up to two flavors, plus artisanal cream and your choice of topping. It's an incredible deal.”

This almond gelato has an amazing, delicate aroma. It's always made with fresh milk and local almonds from their own farm — the almonds are excellent. The flavor is really good, one of the best almond gelatos I've ever had.
