Good news, everyone!

Ciao Bella is sending out their "Gelato Mobiles" this summer to hand out free samples of their delicious gelatos, ice creams, and sorbets at retailers on the East and West coasts.

Over the next two weeks, Ciao Bella will be in Charlotte handing out samples at Harris Teeter stores. The 3.5 oz. samples come with a cute little spoon under the lid, and come in the flavors blood orange sorbet, mango sorbet, lemon sorbet, Tahitian vanilla gelato, and chocolate hazelnut gelato.

I got a couple samples when we raided the G' mobile down at a Harris Teeter in Ballantyne last week. The cups of frozen heaven were totally cute and totally indulgent (well, the creamy gelatos were, sorbets are guilt-free).

Check out the schedule below to get your free sample(s). You know where you'll find me over the next couple weeks... with roller skates on trailing behind the trucks by a rope.
