In Tuscany, traditional gelato was made with milk, eggs, sugar, cream, and other natural ingredients. In Sicily, due to the hot weather, the frozen treat was made with water, fresh fruit, and sugar.
Nowadays, gelaterie (gelato shops) flourish on every street corner in Italy. Modern machinery helps create a smoother consistency by quickening the freezing process. This delightful treat is 80 percent less fat than American ice cream. It has a velvety texture that melts in your mouth without leaving any unpleasant coating.
Here at Paciugo, we uphold our Italian root by making our gelato with whole milk and all-natural ingredients. Our sorbets are made with fresh fruit, sugar, and water. To ensure the freshness of our gelato, we also prepare all our ingredients by hand.
There are no artificial flavoring and preservatives in our product. Instead, you will taste the fresh ingredients and flavors in every spoonful.
