We make classic Italian flavors of gelato using all-organic local dairy products, eggs, sugar and chocolate. We also use fresh local seasonal fruits, depending on availability.
Classic dairy flavors include:
Fior di Latte
Made with pure milk and cream, this simple selection is the perfect complement to dark chocolate or any other strong flavor.
Creme Fraiche
Made with probiotic cultured cream, this is a refreshing and healthy snack.
Crema
This Italian custard is a simple and elegant flavor that's both delicate and satisfying.
Gianduja (chocolate hazelnut)
Hazelnuts and chocolate combine to create an irresistible flavor all its own.
Chocolate
We use the best organic chocolates known to man in this rich flavor that also contains dark chocolate chips. Enough said.
Spicy Chocolate
A hint of hot pepper dovetails nicely with our chocolate gelato--a unique and surprising taste sensation.
Caffe Espresso
We brew dozens of shots of authentic espresso by hand for every batch of Caffe Espresso gelato we make. It’s the only way to achieve this quintessential flavor.
Stracciatella (Vanilla Chocolate Chip)
A classic Fior di Latte mixed with Costa Rican chocolate cru chips.
Nocciola (hazelnut)
Made with Piemonte Hazelnuts imported from Italy (where it's the number-three gelato flavor after chocolate and Crema), this delicate and silky gelato is full of character.
Pistachio di Bronte
When it comes to pistachios, there is really only one undisputed king: Bronte, Sicily. Bronte's pistachios are so unique that they have their own protective mark (D.O.P), very much like fine wines. This tough little nut grows in Sicily on the foothills of the active Mount Etna volcano and yields fruit only once in two years. After tasting these nuts, we decided to fly it in because there is simply nothing that comes close to its incredible flavor.
Banana
Although not a classic Italian flavor, our fresh organic Banana gelato has developed a cult following.
Coconut
Made with organic Thai coconut milk, this is a smooth and comforting flavor.
Cinnamon
Freshly ground organic cinnamon from Sumatra distinguishes this spicy flavor.
Bourbon Vanilla
We searched the globe for the best vanilla beans we could find and landed on Singing Dog organic Bourbon vanilla beans from Papua New Guinea. We use only the real vanilla caviar.
Sicilian Almond
Thanks to the unique almonds we import from Sicily, this flavor is redolent of this delicate yet unmistakable favorite.
Sorbets
Pitango's fat-free sorbets are made with fresh seasonal fruit, organic sugar and pure spring water. We use local organic fruit whenever possible. When we can't find organic products, we source IPM (integrated pest management) produce from trusted local farmers who we know personally. If an ingredient cannot be found locally, we buy only certified organic products from other areas.
Florida organic citrus:
Lemon, Lime, Tangerine, Grapefruit.
Mojito: Fresh lime with mint
Local Pennsylvania Organic Strawberry
Local Pennsylvania Organic Concord grape
Local Pennsylvania Peach
Local Pennsylvania Organic Raspberry
Local Bosc Pear
The pear's lack of tartness makes for a special challenge. We use specially selected Bosc pears ripened and aged to perfection to achieve this earthy flavor.
Local Pennsylvania Quince
Usuallly served cooked, quince is also a challenging fruit to work with. Our approach, by contrast, succeeds to capture the unique sweet-tart flavor and fragrance of fresh uncooked quince.
Local Pennsylvania Rhubarb
Organic Haitian Mango
Organic California Cantaloupe
Chocolate Noir
Our most intensely chocolate flavor, this sorbet is the equivalent of pure dark chocolate—clean, crisp and barely sweet enough to pass as gelato. We call it "chocolate for adults."
Orange Dark Chocolate
This is our bittersweet Chocolate Noir with orange zest--a crisp, clean and healthy chocolate dessert.
