What is gellato?

Gelato is a frozen dessert originating in Italy. It is similar to ice cream, but has a higher density and lower fat content. Gelato is made with milk, sugar, and flavorings, and is typically churned at a slower speed than ice cream, resulting in a smoother, creamier texture. The lower fat content also means that gelato has a lower melting point than ice cream, making it more refreshing on the palate. Gelato is often served with toppings such as fruit, nuts, or whipped cream.
