Bambini Ice Cream

About

Bambini Ice-cream, where a legacy of authentic Italian ice-cream making began in 1882 in Germany.


Our founder, Bortolo Belfi, ignited a family tradition that has flourished through five generations. In 1994, Luca's

parents, Miguel and Constance, brought this cherished heritage to South Africa, adapting their family recipes to

delight local taste buds. They established *La Veneziana* in Magaliesburg, and in 1999, built a dedicated

ice-cream factory, with young Luca lending a hand from the age of three.


In 2020, Luca took the helm, rebranding the beloved La Veneziana to Bambini Ice-cream, meaning "children" in Italian—a tribute to the joy and creativity of childhood. This name embodies the warmth of our family tradition, passed down through generations. At Bambini, we honor our lineage by crafting incomparable ice-cream from real ingredients, guided by the wisdom of our ancestors. Experience the joy of Bambini

Ice-cream, where every scoop tells a story of our family history and passion.

"Everything was top tier, I would repeat every single hour, we enjoyed ourselves. The ice-cream was to die for so as the market. My favorite was cookies and cream."

"Had such a fantastic time at the Bambini Ice-Cream Festival! The concept of sampling multiple scoops was a real treat, I got to try 16 different flavours and every single one was delicious. The atmosphere was festive and lively, with a great market setup, live music from a band, and plenty of seating to relax and enjoy the day. The variety of food trucks was also a big highlight, there was something for everyone, which made it feel like more than just an ice-cream event. Overall, it was a fun, well-organised day out with great energy. Definitely worth attending if you’re looking for something different and enjoyable!"
