About Us

Gelato has redefined the ice cream eating culture world wide. Because it is a natural, fresher and a more nutritious, low fat version of industrial ice cream, people are substituting it and indulging in it instead of Ice Cream.
Gelato generically has a universal audience- it is consumed by a small child who could be a year old or even an adult that is 90 yrs of age. It is loved by all from all walks of life! Moreover, it is a healthier option to ice cream and nowadays nearly everybody is health conscious!
Gelato is now an international trend- it is the second most important after espresso and cappuccino. There are several gelato shops across the USA, successful gelato franchise chains in Australia, the Far and Middle-East, most of Western and Eastern Europe. The gelato culture is spreading very quickly around the globe and in India it is a brand new concept in an untouched, virgin market.
