Welcome to Enjoy Elves Village Gelato!<\/h2>\n \n

The new Santa’s Visitor Center<\/strong> in Elves Village hides something truly magical – elves’ own gelato factory!<\/strong> This northern gelato kitchen produces authentic Italian-style gelato daily, delighting visitors with rich flavor and heartwarming stories.<\/p>\n

Even when it’s -30\u00b0C outside, guests at Elves Village enjoy velvety soft, locally made gelato all year round. Made using traditional Italian techniques, our gelato contains less fat and air – and more flavor and creaminess.<\/p>\n

All our gelato is crafted by hand using local ingredients. For example, our forest berry “frutti di bosco” flavor gets its rich taste from wild blueberries picked in Levi. From cloudberries to spruce tips, our selection celebrates the best of the North – and we\u2019re always developing new recipes.<\/p>\n

“Someone has to taste it… you can’t check quality on an empty stomach!”<\/em> Santa Claus, while inspecting the gelato counter.<\/p>\n

Here in Elves Village, gelato isn’t just dessert. It\u2019s served alongside blinis, with herb oil, or as part of a tasting menu. And the future holds exciting new combinations – the elves are already dreaming up porcini mushroom and smoked reindeer gelato. When passion meets the Arctic nature, anything is possible.<\/p>\n
