Our Milk – Maleny Dairies
We proudly use fresh milk and cream from Maleny Dairies, a family-owned dairy located in the Sunshine Coast hinterland. Their high-quality dairy products help give our gelato its rich, smooth texture and clean flavour. Supporting Australian producers like Maleny Dairies is an important part of how we craft our gelato.

Gelato vs Ice Cream
While gelato and ice cream may look similar, they are made using different methods that create distinct textures and flavours. Traditional Italian gelato contains less air and is churned more slowly, producing a denser and smoother dessert. Discover what makes gelato unique and why it has become a favourite treat around the world.
Why Gelato Tastes Better Than Ice Cream
Gelato is crafted using traditional Italian methods that create a smoother, denser texture and richer flavour than typical ice cream. Because gelato contains less air and is served slightly warmer, the flavours are more vibrant and the texture more indulgent, making every scoop a more intense dessert experience.
