Contrary to popular belief, 'gelato' is not simply the Italian word for 'ice cream.' To make authentic Italian gelato, artisans use much less fat in the mixture than ice cream and churn it at a slower speed to mix in less air. This results in a denser texture and more intense flavor than fluffy, whipped ice cream. Gelato is also served at a slightly higher temperature than ice cream, which allows the flavors to stand out.

However, because Italy does not regulate the use of terms like 'gelato' and 'artisanal,' it can be difficult for the uninitiated tourist to distinguish between a genuine article and a cheap imitation. On our tour, we will make authentic Italian gelato with a professional chef, so you will enjoy this tasty experience and learn how to distinguish a real Italian deal from a tasteless copy!

On this 2-hour gelato making class at Gelateria David in Sorrento, you will learn the techniques and ingredients that go into making the dessert. Make your gelato production with the gelateria's owner, during which you can also taste your production and leave with your favorite flavor from the shop.
