Highland Park will welcome its newest gelato place Friday afternoon when the city's Chamber of Commerce holds a ribbon cutting ceremony at Frost Gelato at 617 Central Avenue.

Patch's Ed Brill was at the Frost Thursday night for its open house and will delve into the place's story in next week's column. In the meantime, here's what you need to know about the city's newest dessert place:

1. The gelato is made fresh daily in their store.
2. All of the ingredients (aside from milk and sugar) are imported from Italy. Same goes for the equipment and display cases.
3. It's basically across the street from Dairy Queen and isn't too far from Arriva Dolce as well as Marla's Sweet Bites and Turtle's, the two cupcake places that opened in Highland Park ealier this year. This city is becoming quite the place to be if you've got a sweet tooth, as Ed Brill pointed out not too long ago. Hey, it's good to have options, right?
