What is Gelato?

Gelato is most commonly associated with ice cream, but there are three very important differences between the two.

1. Fat

Ice cream generally contains 30-40% butter fat, whereas Gelato has 7% fat, making it much healthier with fewer calories. 

2. Air

Ice cream can contain up to 70% air while Gelato has less than 15% air, which makes it much denser and gives it a more concentrated flavor.

3. Temperature

Gelato is served 15 degrees warmer than ice cream, giving it a smooth creamy consistency and does not freeze your taste buds so you can taste more of the flavor.

The flavor is out of this world, and you will not find it anywhere else in the world. We only get to make this a few times a year, so get it while it's here!
