Why isn't your pistachio gelato bright green?
Bright green pistachio ice creams are usually colored with artificial dyes — a nod to the once-dyed shells used when pistachios were picked by hand. Today, we roast California pistachios on-site for a deeper, more authentic flavor. That process naturally gives our pistachio gelato a greenish-brown hue. No dyes, no additives — just pure pistachio flavor, the way it should be.
What's the difference between ice cream and gelato?
Gelato has less cream, no eggs, and is churned slower than ice cream — making it denser, creamier, and more flavorful. Ours is made Italian-style, so the flavors shine without extra air or filler.
Is your gelato gluten-free or sugar-free?
Most of our gelato is gluten-free, but a few flavors contain cookies, graham crackers, or spirits that may include gluten. We don't currently offer sugar-free options.
Do you have anything low sugar or sugar-free?
We don't offer sugar-free or low-sugar gelato. All flavors are made with natural cane sugar, and fruit sorbets contain the fruit's natural sugars. A 4 oz. cup has about a tablespoon of added sugar.
Can I guarantee my favorite flavor for catering?
Our catering lineup rotates based on season and availability. While we always carry staples like Vanilla, Dark Chocolate, and Salted Caramel, some flavors may not be available year-round. We'll offer you a list of current seasonal flavors to choose from closer to your event. If your favorite isn't available, we're happy to suggest a similar flavor you'll love.
