Question 5

We know Cher... Who is Giapo?

Accepted Answer

Gianpaolo Grazioli is the co-owner and creative director of Giapo, the renowned ice cream kitchen located in Auckland, New Zealand. When Cher stepped into his shop in 2018, it was love at first sight, leading to their eventual partnership in creating Cherlato. Gianpaolo's vision is to write the next chapter in the world of ice cream, moving beyond the realms of Italian gelato and American ice cream. By intertwining the various threads of his life's experiences, he has cultivated a singular passion: using ice cream as a vehicle to provide everyone with an opportunity to pause, question, defy conformity, express freedom, and ultimately find inspiration.
