“Ice cream and gelato differ fundamentally in their formulation, processing, and physical properties, all of which stem from nuanced variations in food chemistry. Both are frozen emulsions of fat, water, and air stabilized by proteins and sugars, but the ratios and techniques used to create them yield distinct textures and flavor profiles.

Ice cream typically contains a higher fat content—often between 10–16%—due to the use of heavy cream. This elevated fat level contributes to a richer mouthfeel and acts as a barrier to flavor release, which is why ice cream often requires more intense flavoring. Additionally, ice cream is churned at higher speeds, incorporating more air (known as overrun), which can reach up to 100%. This results in a lighter, fluffier texture but dilutes flavor intensity.

Gelato, by contrast, uses more milk than cream, resulting in a fat content closer to 4–8%. This lower fat matrix allows for more immediate flavor perception. Gelato is churned more slowly, incorporating less air—typically 20–30% overrun—which gives it a denser, silkier texture. It’s also served at slightly warmer temperatures than ice cream, reducing firmness and enhancing flavor volatility.

From a colloidal chemistry perspective, the differences in fat globule dispersion, air cell size, and freezing point depression all contribute to the sensory divergence between these two frozen desserts.“

“The ice cream is good, the long dark haired female working the window on Sunday night 6/2/24 might need to learn what being friendly with a smile means. This girl gave such nasty looks and appeared to be outright miserable.. merely scoffed at me as I ordered…. Her behavior was downright disgusting“
