Like magma and dreams, gelato is a semisolid—neither solid enough to build a house upon nor liquid enough to feed to a thirsty sparrow. Devour dreamy desserts with today’s Groupon: for $5, you get $10 worth of gelato at Cold Spoons Gelato.

Cold Spoons Gelato dishes up frozen Italian treats made from fresh ingredients, compressing mounds of flavor into a sweet, mouth-massaging dairy delight. A rotating list of available flavors ensures several gelato varieties ($3.25 for small, $4.50 for medium, $5.75 for large) are on tap on any given day. Mix, match, and blend gelato flavors to cure clinically depressed taste buds, or try a gelato shake ($4.75), which blends the singular snack with the bone-, teeth-, and facial-hair-strengthening power of milk. Drop in to grab a quick dessert after a dinner out, or pick up a to-go pint and share a spoonful with a special someone or special taxi driver.
