Introducing Gina's Gelato Latest:
Vintage, handmade sodas & floats, pumpkin cheesecake gelato, handmade pumpkin spice caramel, pistachio & chocolate-dipped pumpkin biscotti.
Shrub Sodas & floats: Vintage handmade sodas are here! Made with local & all natural Nelson Olive Oil Co. vinegars, our sparkling water, and chilled with a frozen selection from Gina’s edible flower garden. Get this vintage soda in elderflower, peach, orange & vanilla, or blueberry. Add a scoop to make it a vintage float!
Pumpkin cheesecake gelato: Gina bakes her own graham crackers then crushes them into a spiced crust, swirling them — along with her creamy cheesecake — into our from-scratch pumpkin pie gelato.
Pumpkin spice caramel: Made with fresh pumpkin puree and Gina’s blend of toasted (and toasty!) spices, and simmered into a caramel sauce that you can drizzle on whatever your heart desires. May we suggest pairing with our Fior di Latte gelato or a locally-roasted cappuccino as starting points?
Indulge.
Gina’s Gelato
Actual page is coming at some point (once Gina — a real person who really makes it all on site — has a day off from roasting & grinding hazelnuts and pistachios).
For now, we’ve got the necessities: a phone number that rings up our 1910 phone (come see it, it really works), hours, and — of course — a location.
Get in contact, get in our door, and get a rare-but-true, entirely from-scratch, traditional-ingredient gelato and sorbetto in your hand.
Though we’re told it’s unheard of (and that we’re crazy for not making it easy on ourselves), there are absolutely no pre-made mixes or bases used here.
Yessir & Yes’m, that’s right: We
- pour the milk
- zest the citrus
- crack the eggs
- make the cones
- source individual, natural ingredients as locally as possible
- and all the etc., etc.
We take no shortcuts so we can serve you naturally flavourful, meticulously-made gelato, desserts & delights.
You might say it’s like stepping back into the slow-food era of the early 20th century — and we love it if you do. It’s what we’re aiming for in our art nouveau-deco gelateria.
All of this sounds better than a fancy website, right?
(But yes, it is coming.)
(Eventually.)
