Our Flavors
each gelato and sorbet recipe Gatto Gelato produces has been individually balanced and fine-tuned to suit the character and essence of the flavor itself. although this approach can require more time and care to prepare, we believe our technique helps to capture a more nuanced taste and texture you won't believe is non-dairy.
we can't wait for you to taste the difference!
