Gricco

Gricco is the second brand of Passione per Gelato, a company that launched Momo Gelateria in 2014. “At Momo, the best fresh gelato is produced daily in each store, in its own laboratory, which is what we call our factory. But we wanted to get the best gelato to a lot more people. So we remember the best Italian trattories – delicious dishes, first-rate ingredients, welcoming atmosphere and affordable prices – and we transport the model to the world of glaciers. This is the inspiration for the creation of Gricco”, says Walter Mattos Jr., one of the partners.

The new glacier was thought of as a brand with a premium product, with the high quality of Passione per Gelato, in a modern, cool and fun store model that could in future become a franchise system. The architecture project of the house, signed by the architect Vicente Giffoni, is clean and cheerful, with light materials that give an air of refreshment. Ombrelones tables will be available on the sidewalk for guests to enjoy the beautiful view of Copacabana Beach. The brand and design of Gricco were developed by the design office MFour and draws attention to the beauty of colors.

At Gricco, production is centered in the company's laboratories and the absolute priority is the quality of gelato from each unique recipe and the selection of the best ingredients: the freshest fruit, at the right point, the best milk, organic sugar and the search for cocoas and almonds of the highest quality.

On the menu, prepared by Mestre Gelateira Kátia Mattos, the Sapori di Giorno line brings fixed flavors, such as Bianco di Latte, Nutelino and Yogurt with Red Fruits, and delicious surprises presented daily, divided into fruit gelatos, creamy and chocolates. On the other hand, Linea Oro, the top of the house, brings very special flavors such as Pistacchio Mediterranean, Gricco Mio (Gelato bianco di latte, with homemade brigadier and cubinhos of a delicious handmade brownie) and Cioccolato Diet, among other variables, such as Paçoca Diet and Nocciola Piemonte.
