The prestigious Coppa d’Oro, reaching its 52nd edition, saw for the second time Barbara Bettera climb to first place with her Malaga Raisin flavour, followed by Sergio Del Favero and Thomas Infanti in second and third place. The three professionals will advance to the final rounds of Coppa Italia di Gelateria which will be held in Rome in November 2023. This year, the Mastri Gelatieri Award went to the historic Giolitti family, which has reached its fifth generation of Gelato chefs operating in Rome and in other countries throughout the world. Among the acknowledgements handed out during the last day of the exhibition, there were also the Mig Green Awards, created to raise awareness on sustainability in the gelato shop. The 62nd edition of Mig - Mostra Internazionale del Gelato Artigianale ended with a positive trend that laid the groundwork for further growth in 2023. There were almost ten thousand visitors and over three thousand operators coming from 37 different countries. As per tradition, attendance from German and Austrian markets was the most prominent. A considerable number of new developments were presented by the exhibiting companies, such as products, machines, equipment and services for gelato shops, proving that this exhibition is an ideal place to work with quality: from the care taken towards relationships, to the amount of time that can be dedicated to potential clients and suppliers in a show committed exclusively to the gelato industry. The survey conducted among final consumers present at the exhibition on opening day was greatly appreciated and interesting, as it declared the gelato trends of 2023. The most popular flavours were milkbased, in particular, white chocolate and pistachio. New this year was the digital communication agreement established with Food Professional Network, which conducted a series of live streams which involved thousands of professionals remotely. Prestigious events As usual, the program of collateral events was very lively, an ideal compendium of the exhibiting moment.
