The Best of Stavanger
Make your own ice cream – for a day, or maybe for life? Many children dream of making ice cream when they grow up, imagining the thrill of crafting their own flavours and sharing them with friends and family. At Delizia in Stavanger, this dream becomes a reality today. By Hanna Margrethe Enger

Founded in 2004 by Mark and Helgunn Ravonsheed, Delizia has been creating authentic Italian gelato for over 20 years. Their journey began with a trip to Italy, where they learned the art of gelato-making, attended courses, and invested in top-tier equipment. Today, Delizia offers 80 flavours of creamy, dairy-based ice cream and 40 vegan options, bringing a taste of Italy to Norway. The production process at Delizia combines tradition with modernity. While machines handle the churning, tasks like chopping chocolate and nuts are done by hand, ensuring each batch is crafted with care. Their small-scale, semi-automatic approach reflects a dedication to quality and authenticity. Ice cream maker for a day Delizia offers a unique experience: the chance to become an ice cream maker for
a day. Perfect for children’s birthday parties, participants mix their own ice cream base, choose a flavour, and watch as the machine turns the mix into velvety gelato. Decorating their creation with toppings, sauces, and sprinkles is a highlight. Participants can enjoy their creation on the spot and take home a litre of their freshly made ice cream.
“It would be great if someone with a passion for ice cream could take over,” says Mark. This opportunity opens the door for a new entrepreneur to step in and continue their legacy. For anyone with a love of ice cream, creativity, and an entrepreneurial spirit, Delizia presents a unique chance to fulfill their dreams. Whether it’s making ice cream for a day or taking over the business for life, Delizia is where magic happens. www.delizia.no Instagram: @delizia_ice_cream Facebook: Deliziagelato
“The best moments at work are with the kids,” Helgunn shares. “Seeing them make their own ice cream, they are so proud.” The experience is not just for children; it’s also a fantastic team-building activity for adults, offering a creative and fun escape from daily routines. The next chapter After more than two decades, Mark and Helgunn are contemplating retirement. They hope to pass Delizia on to someone who shares their passion for ice cream. February 2025
