La Tropicale Glacier, the unusual ice cream parlour we love

Gourmet alert! We've unearthed a totally frosty concept for you to try this summer! We're taking you on a journey to discover La Tropicale, a tea room and ice cream parlour where you can sample a range of new flavours. Welcome to frosty heaven!

Here, you can enjoy 100% hom emade ice creams made on site, and it's obvious from the recipes: it's not everywhere that you can taste such unusual flavors. Melon sorbet with chilli petals, seaweed & cucumber gin, blood orange and bell pepper, Immortelle ice cream, chocolate with kampot pepper, Vietnamese coffee, pandan, sorrel-olive yoghurt or caramel ginger, this is the spot to try for culinary adventurers in search of new experiences. Here, your intrepidity is rewarded with flavors that exceed your expectations.

Far from wanting to create a buzz for the sake of creating a buzz, La Tropicale 's aim is to democratize little-known flavors and combinations. That's why, to help you make your choice and deconstruct preconceived ideas, this talented ice cream maker doesn't hesitate to let you taste the different flavors. The tasting speaks for itself: each recipe is perfectly balanced, and you'll find yourself appreciating flavors you'd never have chosen blindly. For example, we were pleasantly surprised by the peach lemon balm! In fact, quite frankly, we loved EVERYTHING about it, right down to the revisited, low-sugar granita.

Behind this unique, affordable spot lies a family history. In fact, this ice cream parlour has been delighting Parisians for 40 years over two generations. Originally set up in the 13th arrondissement, this frosty address has now taken up residence in the 12ᵉ arrondissement , a stone's throw from the Viaduc des Arts, making it an ideal location to enjoy a stroll along the coulée verte, cornet in hand.

At La Tropicale, there's something for everyone, including vegans, vegetarians and those intolerant to gluten and lactose. There's something for everyone, with a wide range of products to suit every diet. Every day, the spot offers new flavors, making it all the more reason to return again and again without getting bored.

On the spot or to take away, the price remains the same. You can take a break in the tearoom and indulge in ice cream, sorbets and frosted desserts. You can even enjoy a healthy lunch on the go, or take part in a mochi-making workshop. And if you've discovered your favorite, you can take your jar home with you. All in all, there are some fifteen flavors to be discovered each week, in line with the seasonality of the products. Throughout the year, there are no fewer than a hundred recipes to sample, so summer and winter alike, you'll be sure to return!
