Stracciatella Gelato: A Taste of Italian Elegance

Some flavors are simply timeless—Stracciatella is one of them. Known as the “Italian chocolate chip,” this beloved gelato brings together silky vanilla cream and delicate shavings of dark chocolate for a texture and taste that’s both refined and nostalgic.

At Duomo Gelato, we honor this classic with the highest quality ingredients and a handcrafted process that stays true to its Italian roots.

🇮🇹 Where It All Began

Stracciatella was born in the 1960s in Bergamo, Italy, inspired by the traditional “stracciatella” soup. Just as egg strands shredded into broth, melted chocolate was poured into cold gelato, instantly hardening into delicate flakes. The result? A masterpiece of contrast—smooth cream with crisp chocolate in every bite.

🍦 How We Make It

At Duomo Gelato, we slow-churn our vanilla base to achieve that dense, creamy texture true gelato lovers crave. We then drizzle high-quality melted chocolate into the gelato during the final moments of freezing. This process creates beautiful, featherlight shards of chocolate scattered throughout—no chunks, just elegance.

✨ Why It’s So Loved

Stracciatella isn’t loud or trendy. It doesn’t need to be. It’s subtle. Classic. Balanced. It’s the flavor you come back to again and again.

Perfect for:
✔️ Gelato purists
✔️ Chocolate lovers
✔️ Anyone who appreciates texture and tradition
