While both gelato and ice-cream are beloved frozen treats, they have distinct differences in texture, ingredients, and preparation. Aurora Foods explains how they compare.
Key Differences Between Gelato & Ice-Cream
1. Ingredients & Fat Content
- Gelato: More milk, less cream, and lower fat content.
- Ice-Cream: Higher cream content, often containing egg yolks for richness.
2. Texture & Churning Process
- Gelato: Slowly churned, making it dense and smooth with less air.
- Ice-Cream: Whipped with more air, resulting in a lighter, fluffier texture.
3. Serving Temperature
- Gelato: Served at a slightly warmer temperature, enhancing its intense flavours.
- Ice-Cream: Stored and served at a colder temperature, making it firmer.
Which One Should You Choose?
- If you prefer rich, creamy textures, ice-cream is the best option.
- If you love intense, natural flavours, gelato is the way to go.

Whether you’re a gelato lover or an ice-cream enthusiast, Aurora Foods produces both with the highest quality ingredients and traditional methods. No matter your preference, you’re guaranteed a delicious experience!
