These are retail prices, per single unit. They are not our wholesale prices. Buying for an ice cream shop, bakery, restaurant, café or distribution? See wholesale & foodservice — wholesale pricing starts at case and pallet quantities and sits well below what you see here.
Not a topping, and not a firmness level — a different formulation. Viscosity, color and flavor developed with master gelatieri and balanced for the churn: your dulce de leche gelato comes out the color it should be, instead of the pale beige a generic caramel leaves you with. It stays smooth out of the freezer rather than going grainy the way a spreading formula does.
Use it for:
- Artisan ice cream and gelato
- Variegato and swirls
- Frozen desserts
Try it properly
Tasting it off a spoon tells you nothing about how it behaves frozen. Ask us for a sample sized for a real test batch — that is the only way to judge it.
Where it sits in the line
Traditional, Soft Pastry, Multipurpose, Extra Firm and Ice Cream Base are five dedicated productions that share one flavor and one color. Ice Cream Base is the one built for the churn, not a firmer or softer version of the others.
Super-premium means what it says
Made the slow way, batch by batch. No shortenings, no added vegetable oils, no palm oil.
