The Art of Crafting Authentic Italian Gelato
When it comes to frozen desserts, Italian gelato is in a league of its own. Unlike regular ice cream, gelato is known for its silky texture, rich flavors, and artisanal quality. At Duomo Gelato, we stay true to tradition, using only premium ingredients and time-honored techniques to bring you an authentic taste of Italy.
But what makes gelato so special? Letโs dive into the secrets of crafting the perfect scoop!
1. The Difference Between Gelato and Ice Cream ๐ฆโ
Many people wonder: Is gelato just a fancy word for ice cream? Not at all! Hereโs what sets them apart:
โ Less Air, More Flavor โ Gelato is churned at a slower speed, making it denser and more flavorful than regular ice cream.
โ Lower in Fat โ Ice cream contains more cream and eggs, while gelato has more milk, making it naturally lighter yet creamier.
โ Served at a Warmer Temperature โ Gelato is stored at a slightly higher temperature, allowing flavors to be richer and more intense.
2. The Magic Behind Our Ingredients โจ
At Duomo Gelato, we believe that great gelato starts with great ingredients. Thatโs why we carefully select:
๐ฅ Fresh Whole Milk & Cream โ The base of any good gelato, providing creaminess without excess fat.
๐ Seasonal Fruits โ We use real fruit to craft refreshing flavors like strawberry, mango, and lemon.
๐ซ Fine Cocoa & Nuts โ Our chocolate gelato is made with premium cocoa, while our pistachio and hazelnut flavors feature hand-selected nuts.
๐ฏ Natural Sweeteners โ No artificial syrups hereโjust pure cane sugar and honey for a perfectly balanced taste.
3. Our Most Popular Gelato Flavors ๐
Wondering which flavor to try first? Here are some of our top favorites:

4. The Secret to a Perfect Gelato Experience ๐จ
To truly enjoy authentic Italian gelato, follow these tips:
โ
Choose a Cup Over a Cone โ Gelato melts faster than ice cream, so a cup keeps it from dripping too quickly!
