Fancy being part of something a little bit different?
We're Gelato Gusto, a family-run business making proper Italian-style artisan gelato & sorbet from our production kitchen in the Sussex countryside.
Over the years we've picked up 22 Great Taste Awards, a Golden Fork Award for London & the South East, and were proud winners of the London & South East Team Gelato Festival World Masters and European Finalists. After 12 successful years serving customers directly through our retail shops, we've shifted our focus to wholesale, supplying our award-winning gelato to restaurants, cafés, hotels and businesses across the South.
