Winter Gelato Magic: Peyra's Cozy Seasonal Treats

While most associate gelato with summer, true connoisseurs know winter is when Peyra's Galata shop becomes extra magical. As Istanbul's streets sparkle with seasonal charm, we reinvent the gelato experience with heartwarming creations perfect for colder days.

Why Winter is Secretly the Best Time for Gelato

1. Dense, Richer Flavors

Cold weather allows gelato to melt slower, intensifying every spoonful of our:

• Velvety Hot Chocolate Gelato (with 70% Venezuelan cocoa)

• Spiced Pumpkin & Tahini Swirl (seasonal favorite)

• Caramelized Fig & Walnut (with Turkish winter figs)

2. Warm Pairings That Redefine Comfort

We serve our gelato with:🔥 Freshly Baked Kadayıf Pouches (crispy shredded pastry filled with gelato)☕ Turkish Coffee Affogato (gelato drowned in double-strength brew)🍯 Sahlep-Gelato Float (hot orchid root milk with vanilla gelato)

3. The Coziest Atmosphere in Galata

Frosted windows, steaming cups, and our vintage wood stove create a hygge vibe that makes tourists linger. As one Google reviewer noted: "Watching snowfall through Peyra's windows with spiced gelato was my favorite Istanbul memory."
