Fior di Latte Lights Up Kabeberi 7s

The RFUEA Grounds were alive with rugby fever this past weekend as fans packed in for the Kabeberi 7s, one of the most anticipated stops in Kenya's National Sevens Circuit. While KCB Rugby powered through to clinch the title, Fior di Latte was busy making their own mark, serving up artisanal gelato and sorbets that became essential fuel for players and fans battling the Nairobi heat.

For two full days, Fior di Latte's stand was constantly busy. Scoops piled high on handmade waffle cones and cups filled with creamy gelato and fruity sorbets - the stand quickly became where everyone ended up when the sun got too much. As the crowd cheered on high-speed tries and big tackles, plenty made their way over to try flavours named after the teams they were backing. It wasn't just about cooling off, it was about getting into the weekend's vibe.

The rugby-themed flavours drew serious crowds:

• Lion's Share Gelato - rich and indulgent, living up to its name

• Kulabu Gelato captured Mwamba Rugby's intensity with deep chocolate 

• Red Lion Gelato honored Impala Rugby's history with a classic taste

• Tang Tang Sorbet packed tropical pineapple punch - exactly what you needed after hours in the stands

• XXVII Gelato delivered clean, refreshing notes for Strathmore Leos supporters

• Swara Sorbet brought bright fruit flavors that matched the energy on the field

Throughout the weekend, the Fior di Latte stand became a regular checkpoint for most people there. Spectators grabbed breaks between matches, officials and organizers stopped by for quick treats, and players came over after their games ended. The constant stream of customers proved that gelato and rugby actually work well together, and Fior di Latte ended up being a bigger part of the weekend than anyone expected.

The Kabeberi 7s delivered more than just rugby action - it brought together community, culture, and connection. Fior di Latte was glad to contribute to that mix, adding some sweetness and relief to an intense weekend. And as the circuit rolls on to its next stop, one thing is certain rugby and gelato make a winning pair. Because sometimes victory tastes like a scoop of Lion's Share in one hand and a cheer for your team in the other.

And while the rugby weekend was special, the good news is you don't have to wait for the next big event to enjoy these flavors. Fior di Latte welcomes you to their shop at Lavington Mall, where the same artisanal gelato and sorbets are served fresh every day.
