Not Ice Cream. Real Gelato.

Most places sell ice cream. We make gelato โ€” and there's a real difference.

Gelato is churned slower, served warmer, and made denser than American ice cream. That's why the flavor hits harder. We use the same slow-churning method perfected in Italy, with no artificial bases, no shortcuts, and no compromises.

Every batch starts from scratch in our Round Rock kitchen. Our chocolate comes from the Ecuadorian Rainforest. Our pistachio paste is made from real pistachios. Our dairy-free sorbettos use real fruit. When you taste the difference, you'll know why it matters.

๐Ÿจ Handcrafted Gelato

The real thing. Made the Italian way.
Our gelato is slow-churned daily in our Round Rock kitchen using real ingredients โ€” imported Ecuadorian chocolate, pure pistachio paste, fresh fruit, and real dairy. No premade bases. No artificial flavors. Over 24 rotating flavors including classic Italian varieties and seasonal creations you won't find anywhere else in Round Rock.

๐ŸŒฑ Dairy-Free Sorbettos

All the flavor. None of the dairy.
Our dairy-free sorbettos are made with real fruit โ€” not concentrate, not flavoring. Completely vegan and gluten-free, they're rich enough to satisfy anyone, not just those avoiding dairy. Try our signature Maracumango (passion fruit + mango) or one of our rotating seasonal options like watermelon, lemon, or raspberry.

A Family Shop. A Real Commitment.

The Gelato Lab was born from a simple belief: dessert should be made with real ingredients, real care, and real passion. We're a family-owned shop in Round Rock โ€” not a franchise, not a chain โ€” and every scoop reflects that.

We source our ingredients the way they've always been sourced in Italy: by quality, not convenience.
