Stampede Gelato

Stampede began in Fremantle with an appealing kind of restlessness: a craft gelateria that changes its menu almost every night, working in small batches so the range never quite settles. The makers claim the largest — and still-growing — flavour archive in the country, built from ingredients sourced close to home across Western Australia, and the nightly rotation is how they keep it moving. It's a deliberately evening affair, the two shops opening after dark from Wednesday to Sunday: one on Beaufort Street in Mt Lawley, the other on South Terrace in South Freo. Following along on Instagram is half the fun, since what's in the cabinet tonight may be gone tomorrow. For gelato obsessives, that unpredictability is precisely the draw.
