What's the difference between gelato and ice cream?
Gelato typically contains less fat than ice cream, and it's churned at a slower speed. This process incorporates less air and creates a denser consistency, resuting in a much more intense flavour. Try it out!
When do you deliver?
We offer same-day delivery on all orders placed before 7pm. The deliver slot is between 7pm and 9pm.
Orders placed after 7pm are delivered the following day.
Where do you deliver to?
We deliver to Derby and the sorrounding villages. This website checks your postcode at checkout, so if you can place the order, we will deliver! :)
What's your delivery fee?
We offer free delivery on all orders of 4 tubs or more. This is applied authomatically at checkout.
For smaller orders a £2.50 delivery fee applies.
Where are you based?
We are based in Breadsall, Derby, and operate from our very own home kitchen. We are fully registered as a Food Business with Derby City Council and hold a 5-star hygiene rating.
What ingredients do you use?
We only use 100% natural ingredients, with no artificial flavourings or colourings.
We source our fresh milk and cream from a wonderful local farm in Duffield, while other ingredients arrive from small producers around the word. We order our pistachio and hazelnut pastes, for example, from a small family business in Sicily, operating since the 1930s.
How big are your gelato tubs?
Our tubs are 16 fl. oz, or 455ml in volume. This is probably the tub size you might be most familiar with for ice cream.
Is your gelato suitable for vegetarians?
Yes, it is. The only ingredients of animal origin in our recipes are dairy milk & cream and eggs, so our gelato is suitable for a vegetarian diet.
