Simona Papagno is the gelato maker and founder of “Criollo. Il bistrot del gelato”, established in 2019 after her training in 2018 at the Scuola Italiana di Gelateria in Perugia. Her path stems from the idea of turning gelato into a language able to unite art, culture and food, giving life to a world in which creativity and quality coexist harmoniously. Over the years she has taken part in numerous international events, including Cibus, Berebene, Sherbeth – the International Gelato Festival in Palermo – the Gelato Festival World Masters, where she was an Italy finalist at Sigep in Rimini, and the Gelato d’Oro. Between 2024 and 2026 she was recognised in several guides and rankings, including “La pecora nera” and Dissapore’s ranking of the 100 best gelaterias in Italy. In 2025 she took part in the programme ABKS and won the format “Il giubileo del gusto” promoted by Fipe. In 2026 she became an Ambassador for AlterEco Disposable and placed 58th in the World Ranking. Her work stands out for gastronomic and ketogenic gelato, but also for the continuous search for new flavours and pairings, with particular attention to alcoholic gelati, chocolates and infusions. For Simona, gelato is not just a flavour, but a state, a social moment and an opportunity for inclusion. For this reason she organises events and collaborations with local personalities and companies, helping to promote Italian artisan gelato.
