Each serving delivers 11 grams of protein (one of the highest protein counts currently available in the frozen dessert category) while maintaining the smooth, creamy texture expected from authentic Italian gelato, without the chalky mouthfeel often associated with high-protein ice cream. In taste tests and product demonstrations, consumers consistently comment that they cannot tell the product contains added protein, noting its rich, creamy texture and authentic gelato flavor. 

“We’re excited to show operators how versatile this product can be across their menus,” said Stephanie Schultz, marketing director at G.S. Gelato. “From smoothie bowls and protein coffees to shakes and healthier dessert offerings, it’s such a simple ingredient to work with while still feeling indulgent. People get genuinely excited that they can enjoy something this rich and creamy while still hitting their protein goals.”

The launch comes as demand for high-protein frozen desserts continues to grow, with consumers increasingly seeking products that balance indulgence and nutritional value. Operators are looking for versatile menu solutions that align with these evolving preferences.

With nationwide availability through Dot Foods, G.S. Gelato is positioned to help operators meet changing consumer demand with a product that delivers on both taste and performance.
