A wide variety of gelati at Confetti will spin your head when choosing what to get. However note that picking the one with a name that you haven't heard before does not always mean tasty, as I can say from experience. But after all, the more you have tried, the better.
Furthermore and even better, ice cream is not the only Italian treat you can enjoy at Confetti. Some may find it surprising for a gelateria, but their pizza is indeed a must have! The menu is rounded out with pastas, cakes and other Italian delicacies. They also offer take-away packages, but it's more than likely that the atmosphere there would make you want to stay.
During summer they have tables outside, in the backyard, but I find it nicer inside. And lastly, be careful with the 'large' portion of ice cream because it's a volume that could be a challenging one even for advanced ice cream eaters.
Confetti is located just across from the tram stop at Garibaldi Square at the beginning of Graf Ignatiev Str.
