A: In this case do not hesitate to contact us. Look at the network of sales and choose the nearest Carpigiani quarter. Before doing that, we advise you to analyze the market where you want to open a shop: even if ice cream is a healthy and (generally) good kind of food, people in your country might not like it.

A: Yes. You can take a look at the "Recipes" section.
Carpigiani machines are the best in the world but a good ice cream depends also on your skills.
