What is the difference between artisan gelato and artificial gelato?
Gelato is one of the most beloved desserts in Italy and around the world, but we all know that… Not all gelato is created equal.
Today we’ll try to explain how to recognize quality gelato to enjoy a more natural and satisfying experience!
How is artisan gelato made?
Artisan gelato, especially Cremilla’s gelato, is prepared every day in our gelato laboratory.
We use fresh and genuine ingredients to preserve the natural taste.
Artisan gelato does not contain preservatives, artificial colorings, or substances that can alter the authentic flavor and color of the raw materials.
Strawberry flavor has the color of strawberries, chocolate flavor has the color of chocolate…
In short, every gelato prepared in Cremilla’s laboratory preserves all the original characteristics of the real product.
Prepared every day
Our artisan gelato is made daily by our master gelato makers to guarantee the freshness of all ingredients, the perfect texture, and the flavor you expect.
Real artisan gelato!
We prepare our gelato with fresh milk, eggs, real fruit, cocoa, hazelnuts, pistachios…
We use the ingredients that nature offers us because we truly want it to be a moment of joy for your palate.
Slow aging and churning preserve its creaminess… An artisan gelato must necessarily be creamy.
Not everyone knows that the low amount of air incorporated into artisan gelato makes it denser, richer, and more enjoyable. Artisan gelato is one of the purest pleasures for the taste buds.
There’s no air in our gelato, only real ingredients! That’s why it doesn’t look puffed up, but instead attracts with its natural texture.
How to recognize artisan gelato
Artificial gelato—or if you prefer, industrial gelato—is made differently.
Very often it contains additives, colorings, artificial flavors, and even hydrogenated vegetable fats that replace fresh cream or milk.
Well, we who make true artisan gelato use milk, fresh cream, fruit, and everything nature generously offers. The difference is visible and can be tasted.
At first glance, artisan gelato looks less voluminous and has softer colors—and this is a characteristic you can notice as soon as you enter an artisan gelateria.
Don’t be fooled by ultra-colored gelato, because nature is much more discreet when it enters true artisan gelato.
Artisan gelato is more opaque and offers a quality experience.

Artisan gelato vs artificial gelato
Choosing good gelato is now easier!
To know if you’re eating true artisan gelato, pay attention to the color! Have you seen that neon green pistachio? Well, that’s not real pistachio…
The pistachio in artisan gelato is PISTACHIO GREEN!!
The texture shouldn’t be too hard or too liquid… You recognize artisan gelato at the very first taste.
Artisan gelato is prepared with a slow and careful process that leaves nothing to chance.
