Gelateria De Rocco – The Perfect Stop for Cyclists Between Tradition and Innovation If you’re a cyclist exploring Bavaria and looking for a refreshing break, Gelateria De Rocco in Schwabach is the perfect destination. Since 1966, we have been offering high-quality artisanal gelato, continuing a tradition that dates back to 1911, when our great-grandfather Arcangelo was granted permission to produce and sell gelato in Gorizia, then part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Today, under the guidance of Luca De Rocco and Francesca Panciera, we carry on this heritage with passion, combining tradition, creativity, and innovation. In 2024, our gelateria was completely renovated, creating a modern and welcoming space—an ideal stop to recharge during your cycling journey. Our Signature Flavors Every day, we offer a selection of classic flavors, made with seasonal ingredients, alongside innovative and surprising combinations, the result of continuous research and experimentation. Among our most renowned specialties: • Mandarino di Ciaculli sorbet with caramelized pistachios – A burst of citrus sweetness with a crunchy, indulgent touch. • Strawberry grape sorbet with caramelized walnuts – A perfect blend of freshness and intense aroma. • Bergduft – A unique gelato featuring mountain honey, pine bud sprouts, and alpine cheese, evoking the scents and flavors of the Alps. A Commitment to Sustainability We are dedicated to reducing our environmental impact by adopting eco-friendly solutions, such as using local and organic ingredients, eliminating single-use plastics, and choosing compostable packaging. A Story of Passion and Innovation Growing up surrounded by the intense aromas of vanilla and freshly peeled lemons, Luca developed a deep passion for gelato-making, further strengthened by continuous training and participation in international competitions, including second place at the international competition Gelato World Tour and awards at Sherbeth 2018 and 2019.
