Gelato and Sorbetto:
Gelato contains less air than regular ice cream, so it is intensely flavorful and has a smooth, velvety texture. Gelato is often lower in fat compared to regular ice cream, as it contains more milk and less cream. Learn more about the differences in our Gelato vs. Ice Cream vs. Sorbetto article.
Sorbetto is the Italian word for sorbet and is 100% dairy-free because it’s made with water, sugar and oftentimes includes fruit, fruit juice and/or fruit puree. Talenti’s Sorbettos are uniquely crafted to contain more of the good stuff like fresh fruit to create a rich, smooth, velvety texture – it’s almost hard to believe they’re 100% dairy-free.
Dietary Information and Ingredients:
Yes! All of our sorbettos are dairy-free. We think you’ll love our classics like Alphonso Mango or Roman Raspberry and if you’re looking for an extra decadent treat, check out our Cold Brew Coffee Sorbetto. Learn more about our Dairy-free sorbettos here.
You’re in luck. Most of our products are gluten-free. Just check the nutritional panel on your pint, or go to the gluten-free section on our website to see all of our gluten-free options.
You’ve come to the right place. All Talenti products are Kof-K kosher.
When creating our products, customer safety is our first and foremost priority. We do all we can to ensure no customer is affected by the six allergens we use in our plant – soy, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, milk and eggs – however, we do not have separate production lines for our flavors containing these allergens. As such, Talenti follows a very rigorous Allergen Quality Control Plan for the storage and handling of these allergens to ensure that our product contains no unlabeled allergens.
We take great pride in using non-GMO sourced ingredients in our products. If you’d like to learn more about how we define non-GMO sourced ingredients, find out here.
Absolutely not! We believe in making gelato and sorbetto without high-fructose corn syrup. Sometimes it’s what’s not in our pints that make them Clearly Talenti.
We love our cows, and we love the people who eat what our cows make, so we make sure all of the dairy products used in Talenti are rBGH-free and sourced from humane farms.
Yes, any individual ingredients we use like milk, cream and eggs are pasteurized, as is the final product that’s on your spoon. Products are pasteurized in the beginning stages of production and are safe for everyone to enjoy.
Palm oil is not a key ingredient in our gelato bases, but we sometimes use chunks or pieces (such as baked goods) that are made with palm oil sourced from Indonesia or Malaysia. We are committed to providing a greater level of detail and transparency as to where the palm oil contained in our products is sourced and who supplies it.
Dextrose keeps your gelato cold and smooth. Our gelatos contain non-GMO sourced dextrose derived from corn to lower the freezing point and to maintain the smooth velvety texture of our gelato during transport from our gelato factory to your local store.
Most of the natural flavors included in Talenti products are comprised of ingredients such as fruit juices, fruit concentrates, essential oils, and extracts, but they vary by flavor. Most of the exact ingredients are considered to be proprietary information by our vendor-partners, but meet the FDA’s definition of natural flavor which contain no allergens or unnatural ingredients. If any allergens are present, it will be labeled in the ingredient statement on the product.
We do add vermouth to this flavor, but the alcohol is cooked off during the pasteurization process. The result is a sophisticated dark chocolate flavor with a hint of vermouth; one that doesn’t require an ID to eat.
Compared to a cup of coffee or a can of soda, our coffee inspired gelatos contain very little caffeine. Our Cold Brew Sorbetto contains between 39-84 mg per 2/3 cup serving, our Coffee Chocolate Chip Gelato contains between 43-91 mg per 2/3 cup serving.

General:
Sometimes, during distribution or in the store, a pint may have a chance to thaw and then refreeze, causing its ingredients to separate, become gritty, or develop freezer burn and ice crystals. While we maintain strict temperature control of the products, once it leaves our facility we do not have control over the care of how the product is handled.
