From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Toscanini's Ice Cream Company was founded in 1982 and is located in Cambridge, MA. It is known worldwide for excellent ice cream, and has been highly rated in the New York Times food section as well as Gourmet Magazine. Owner Gus Rancatore recently published an Amazon Short with author Helen Epstein, entitled "Ice Cream Man: 25 Years at Toscanini's;" the Short has spent several weeks on Amazon's top ten list.
