Italian Gelato Training
Step behind the counter and learn how real Italian gelato is made — not from a packet, but from scratch. Led by our maestri in Miami and Los Angeles, our hands-on training teaches the craft from balancing ingredients to spinning your own batch. Whether it's for the love of it or to build a gelato business, you'll leave knowing how it's really done.
Experience the Art of Real Italian Gelato.
Gelato is not ice cream. It has less air, less fat, more flavour — and it demands precision. In our Gelato Labs, you'll discover how our chefs transform premium Italian ingredients into creamy perfection every day, learning each phase of the artisanal process from balancing a base to reading the texture of a finished batch.
The Italian Method
Italian gelato is churned at lower speed and served at a warmer temperature than commercial ice cream — giving it a denser, silkier texture. You'll understand why this matters and how to apply it from the very first batch.
Ingredients & Balance
Natural ingredients only. No artificial colours, no preservatives. You'll work with premium produce — the finest Italian ingredients — and learn how to build a recipe that holds its flavour and texture from lab to scoop.
The Classic Trinity
Every Italian gelateria earns its reputation on three benchmarks. Our classes are built around the same standards our maestri apply daily.
- Stracciatella — the texture test
- Pistacchio — the ingredient test
- Amarena — the balance test
