The gelato is absolutely one of a kind. Had the privilege of ordering the Cremino for Easter. It.Was.Delicious. My other favorites are the Coconut and the Caramel Sea Salt. Sincerely highly recommend to try all flavors. Will return over and over. Keep up the fantastic labor of love Kim!!!! Best Gelato Anywhere!
I wish I could recommend this dessert.. but I can not and would not even if I was paid to. Kimberly left a very public comment fat shaming a woman who was eating a dessert right here on Facebook. How can you consciously fat shame someone when you supposedly create desserts yourself? What disgusting behavior. As a business owner, you should probably have known better than to do such a thing to anyone let alone a stranger over the same type of cuisine you create and market.
I visited Gelato Di Babbo after reading about it in Sunday Inquirer. I was surprised to find a tiny store in rural PA that had delicious, flavorful gelato similar to what I enjoyed in Italy. The owner makes everything from its basic ingredients and serves fresh gelato with several flavors. Prices are reasonable and service is helpful and pleasant. I highly recommend supporting this old fashioned business that caters to its customers.

Found out about this place when it featured in the local news recently. The owner won a Gelato competition in Italy. She won over many Italian chefs!! That reason was strong enough for me to go to the store to try some famous gelato. It truly was delicious. There is outdoor seating which helps if the weather is good. Owner was in the store. Very nice lady, she shared her experience in the competition.

Fantastic gelato. As good or better than what I've had in Italy. Bonus points for simplicity and traditional flavors with reasonable portion sizes.
As an ethical vegan who has never been able to indulge in gelato before tonight, I was delighted to find that they offered not 1 but 3 plant-based gelato flavors! I drove an hour and a half round trip, and I certainly was not disappointed. The salted caramel vegan gelato was completely worth the long drive! I did not know that it was possible for something to taste so good, and this coming from someone who does not have a sweet tooth! My only regret was that it took me so long to try this decadent, animal-free/cruelty-free/vegan gelato! If you also try your best to live a compassionate lifestyle, you must drop everything and get yourself down to Gelato di Babbo in Hummelstown. Run, don't walk! ?
I stopped in to purchase some home made Gelato. I tried the vegan made hazelnut raspberry sauce vegan chocolate with coffee beans and I would have never ordered vegan gelato but this was outstanding. I also purchased the pistachio gelato and the hazelnut described above. It was a pleasure meeting you and wish you the best with your competition in Italy in a couple of weeks.

The best gelato I ever had and it was dairy free. I just can't get over how good it was. My husband who hates trying anything different loved the vegan hazelnut flavor. Do yourself a favor go- go now -don't wait you will not regret it.

This was my first time and I absolutely loved it! The Gelato was delicious- I got the Lemon Hibiscus and Caramel Chocolate. Staff was really helpful in letting me try samples and finding my perfect flavors and were very allergy conscious (gluten free). The little outdoor patio was nice with the string lights. I felt like I was in a small cafe in Italy!

Dairy free French toast was AMAZING. The option to enjoy frozen deserts that I can eat being lactose intolerant is simply amazing. The gelato here always brings me so much joy!!!

After traveling to Italy, my wife and I have searched throughout the entire country trying to find the best state side gelato. Everywhere from Sedona AZ to Boston MA. Nothing has even come close to the quality and taste of Gelato Di Babbo. This is the Gelato that even Italy can't touch. Hands down the best Gelato my wife and I have ever had. The texture, sweetness, and temperature are all perfect. If you don't like this Gelato then you don't actually like Gelato. I would give this ten stars if I could. We will be back!
