ANIA Gelato has opened its newest Australian store at Westpoint Blacktown, bringing its handmade gelato, frozen yoghurt, sorbets and desserts to Western Sydney.

The new outlet, located on Level 3 near El Jannah, officially opened on Saturday, September 5, with the international gelato brand marking the occasion by giving away 500 free desserts to customers.

The first 500 customers received a freshly baked warm cookie topped with a scoop of Anita gelato and sauce as part of the opening celebrations.

During opening week, the store is trading from 10am until midnight, establishing a new late-night dessert option for Blacktown and surrounding Western Sydney communities.

“We are so excited to bring Anita Gelato to Blacktown and become part of such a vibrant Western Sydney community,” Anita Gelato Australia said.

The brand has developed a strong following in Australia and internationally for its handmade gelato and extensive selection of classic and inventive flavours.

The Blacktown opening further expands Anita Gelato’s Australian presence and adds another international food brand to Westpoint’s growing dining and entertainment offering.
