Gelato Paradiso

About the Business

Specialties

Using traditional Italian recipes, our gelato and sorbetto is made daily in small batches by artisans to maximize freshness, taste, and authenticity. Artisan cakes individually hand crafted with love, using only the freshest and finest ingredients imported directly from Italy. Cakes and gelato available for wholesale and catering.

History

Established in 1999.

In 1999, after sampling a broad (and I mean broad) array of gelato on offer throughout various alcoves of the Boot, Gelato Paradiso began with the simple desire to bring the quintessential experience of the Italian gelateria to our friends and family in California. Next came what can only be described as an importing frenzy. In setting up shop, our recipes, our ingredients, our methods, our training, our marble counters and tiles, our artwork, our cups and spoons, our display cases - EVERYTHING came from Italy. Thus, the ideal of the authentic Italian gelateria made its way to the West Coast.
