May 5, 2009 Is Gelato the same as Ice Cream? By
Samantha Lathrop
Gelato is an Italian version of Ice Cream, it has similar ingredients as most ice cream worldwide with mild (sometimes cream), a sweetener (usually sugar), and a flavoring (maybe fruits or nuts or artificial flavor) and air for main ingredients. Gelato, however, can be made with either a pasteurizing hot provess or a a cold process without pasteurization but both require a special gelato batch freezer.
Like ice cream, higher quality products have less air and result in a denser final product.
