Everything started in 2008...
As an Italian, I can tell you that everybody loves gelato and not only in Italy!.
My passion started in 2008 in a period when for work purposes I use to guide groups of tourists to visit and taste one of the best Italian gelato of Italy.
Little by little and detail after detail with lots of curiosity around the magic world of this frozen dessert in 2017 I started a market research in Melbourne discovering that no one was offering a real gourmet Italian artisan gelato 100% natural through a mobile format.
In November 2019 we started and we made it through the pandemic thanks to a unique delivery service open 24hrs a day receiving a huge support from the community becoming popular for our highly appreciated classic Italian flavors.
Today our successful journey continues with an increase demand for our premium catering services thanks also the excellent reputation built through these years. Today Naturalis Gelato is the only official Italian gelato business recognized by the AIG that has exclusively appointed our awarded gelato chef, ambassador of the Italian gelato in Australia, a commitment taken not only in offering the best possible Italian gelato experience but also for promoting and valorizing the Italian excellence.
Why our gelato is Gourmet?
Most of the gelato available on the market taste all the same because of easy access to industrial "ready to use" ingredients that everyone without any knowledge can transform into a gelato.
At Naturalis Gelato, the only preservative we use is the right negative temperature that we use to preserve it with care.
All flavors from "Italian classics" to new modern or personalized combinations, have their own strong identity in taste, body, structure and organoleptic properties.
Our gelato is balanced to provide a real unique experience like no others, the classic ones reminds the Italian old days while the modern ones are enriched with different aromatic notes to create a burst of flavor in your mouth.
All these elements along with premium selected ingredients chosen by our Italian awarded gelato chef, makes our Gelato cart service a real gourmet experience that starts with the ingredients selection process, a serious part of the business necessary to guarantee the superior quality product that you deserve.
For example, the fruit is carefully selected according to its maturation level then tested on our recipe, this step it's of a paramount importance as the fruit is never the same but we always guarantee the same excellent result.
Our selected suppliers are small Australian and Italian farm businesses, we have decided to support small realities not only for their pursuit in the research of excellence but also for their ethical approach in the production and quality control process.
Last but not least thanks to our almost 20 years of experience, with our unique and innovative level of flavour personalization we are the only one in Victoria that can guarantee a unique Italian gourmet experience.
Sustainable small business by choice
"We look at our gelato not just as a product to sell but with a story to tell".
From pure raw ingredients chosen from an accurate selection to the final production process, at Naturalis Gelato on of the main goals is valorize and support local farmers.
We have also managed reducing the water waste by 35% and the use of electricity by 40% creating an efficient and sustainable production process.
This optimization of our system with no waste, guarantees to our customers the best fresh Italian gelato experience where the "sold out" it's an exciting part of our quality policy as we only in limited quantities when is needed.
We take a balanced approach to sustainability by weighing up various factors (e.g. environmental impact, operational effectiveness, cost, practicality) before deciding what course of action to take. While there is always room to do better, these are some of the initiatives that we are currently committed to:
- We use only biodegradable cups and spoons
- Our Gelato cart service it's self powered, so there's no need to use petrol generators on site or plug into a electric socket to serve our guests.
- We are committed in programs with local schools for the valorization and the promotion of the natural gelato and its benefits.
- We are "giving back to the community" by participating to fundraising events and donating a percentage to the cause for each gelato sold.
Many schools have chosen and prefer our gelato cart service from just standard ice cream because gelato is clean, preservative, and colorants free, with no nasty or secret ingredients, it's just beautifully natural, genuine, and ethically responsible, as we use fresh ingredients by never excessing in added sugars and for its sustainable production process.
This is our "healthy way" chosen to delight the new generations as we deeply believe that gelato must be "naturally" good for our little ones.
We also spread the "Italian gelato passion" through workshops and classes suitable for kids of any age.
Corporate, weddings, schools, private parties, festivals and more.
