What if Neapolitan ice cream was more than dessert?

Neapolitan Icecream: The Musical is inspired by the true stories of Italian immigrants who carried their songs, traditions, and entrepreneurial spirit across oceans, building cafés, gelaterias, and communities that still exist today in a world they were not dreaming to build a life in.

NeapolitanIceCreamMusical returns to Toronto’s Jackman Performance Hall on July 6, bringing with it the passion, humour, and emotion of a city that has inspired generations. And deservingly so, it has yet again sold out!

For anyone who has ever longed for home, celebrated famiglia, or fallen in love with Italian music, this is a story worth experiencing. Follow NeapolitanIceCreamMusical for news on their next performances!

We are delighted to welcome Sofia Gallo | MasterChef UK | Private Chef and Food Writer to the VeraVita family. 🇮🇹

Originally from Cilento, the UNESCO World Heritage landscape in southern Campania, Sofia’s story is one deeply rooted in place, memory, and tradition. She learned to make fresh pasta at the side of her Nonna Luigia from the time she was knee-high, carrying forward the scents, flavours, and rituals of the region she still calls home.

An award-winning private chef, cookery tutor, and food writer, Sofia appeared on MasterChef UK in 2021 before winning the prestigious Inspiring Culinary Generations national competition the following year. During lockdown, she found a way to share her heritage with the world—creating recipe cards and virtual cooking experiences inspired by the recipes once prepared for guests at her family’s holiday villa.

Today, her work spans food festivals, teaching, writing, and culinary storytelling, all guided by a simple philosophy: bringing people to Italy through food, wherever they may be.

We’re also thrilled to congratulate her on her recent achievements as a shortlisted and commended finalist in two categories of the World Food Photography Awards, and her appointment as a Committee Member—and Director—of The Guild of Food Writers.

Benvenuta, Sofia. We can’t wait to share your stories with our readers in our upcoming issue!

A film festival. An AI art exhibit. . . FIFA viewing parties. Architecture masterclasses. Live music. A documentary about the kindness of Newfoundland after 9/11.

Somehow, it’s all part of the same festival.

As ICFF celebrates its 15th anniversary, it’s clear this is no longer just a film festival—it’s become one of Canada’s most exciting celebrations of culture, creativity, and community.

We attended the 2026 lineup announcement and left more excited than ever for what’s ahead.

Last night at Toronto’s Festa della Repubblica celebrations, we joined members of the Italian-Canadian community in celebrating Italy—and in saying farewell to someone who has played an important role in strengthening the ties between our two countries. 🇮🇹🇨🇦

As Consul General of Italy in Toronto, Luca Zelioli has spent the past several years championing Italian culture, fostering business and diplomatic relationships, and supporting the vibrant Italian-Canadian community that helps keep our shared heritage alive.

We had the pleasure of spending time with Luca during his service and were struck by both his passion for Italy and his genuine appreciation for the people and organizations working to build bridges between Canada and Italy.

As his mandate in Canada comes to a close next week, we want to thank him for his service, leadership, and dedication. His contributions have left a meaningful mark on our community, and his presence will be missed.

From all of us at VeraVita, we wish Luca every success as he returns to Rome for his next chapter.

Arrivederci e buona fortuna, Luca. Grazie mille.

One minute you’re standing beside a Lamborghini Temerario.

The next, you’re listening to two entrepreneurs talk about their nonni arriving in Canada with little more than a suitcase and a dream.

That juxtaposition felt like the perfect summary of this year’s Business Excellence Awards.

Yes, there were luxury cars. Formula 1 simulators. Aperitivi. Plenty of business cards being exchanged.

But what stayed with me most were the conversations.

Stories about family. Heritage. Building something from nothing. The responsibility of carrying forward what previous generations started.

Congratulations to this year’s honourees, including Mark Galardo, John Bianchini, Nadia Corrado, Basil Policaro, Dr. RJ Cusimano, and , whose contributions continue to strengthen the ties between Italy and Canada in meaningful ways.

For all the talk of business excellence, evenings like this remind me that the relationship between Italy and Canada has always been a human story first.

The deals, flights, restaurants, companies, and organizations matter.

But people are what make them possible.

Some people collect souvenirs. We collects moments. 🇮🇹

This one finds our European Editor & Co-Publisher .pigeon somewhere between Sorrento and Capri, salt in the air, the Mediterranean stretching endlessly ahead, and another Italian adventure underway.

The next story is always waiting just beyond the horizon.
