Scoop into Spring at the Bambini Ice Cream Easter Tasting Event
The sweetest tradition in the North West is back as the Bambini Ice Cream Easter Tasting Event prepares to transform Magaliesburg into a dessert lover’s paradise. This April, families and foodies are invited to escape the city bustle and indulge in a handcrafted journey of frozen delights at the picturesque Galloway Gardens.
A Legacy of Authentic Italian Craftsmanship
Bambini Ice Cream carries a rich heritage dating back to 1882, with roots stretching from Germany to the heart of South Africa. Today, under the leadership of Luca Belfi, the brand continues to honour five generations of tradition by using real, honest ingredients. The Bambini Ice Cream Easter Tasting Event is the ultimate showcase of this passion, offering a “tasting extravaganza” that has become a landmark on the Gauteng social calendar.
What to Expect: 16+ Flavours and Festive Vibes
Held at Galloway Gardens (nestled near the iconic Black Horse Brewery), the event offers a full sensory experience. Attendees won’t just be tasting ice cream; they’ll be immersing themselves in a vibrant outdoor market atmosphere.
