Not because it comes from Italy it is authomatically artisan or following all the principles of the hand crafted gelato. We have industries in Italy as well. When you purchase gelato at the grocery store in Italy you get an industrial product. what does it mean? it means that it is not as dense as handmade gelato. It means that the amount of air pumped in the product is comparable to the amount of air pumped in ice cream. <br />The word "made in Italy" sounds fancy...

Although fairly tasty, the texture is not at all like the gelato I had in Italy (in Venice, Tuscany, and Rome). The Archer Farms gelato has a much airier, whipped texture than authentic gelato which is much denser than typical American ice cream. The Archer Farms gelato has a consistency more like that of a frozen mousse than an authentic Italian gelato. The label says that it is imported from Italy, but I suspect there has been some attempt by the Italian manufacturer to make the product more acceptable to the American palate by whipping in more air. For more information on the differences between authentic gelato and American ice cream see for example the information at the following link: http://cookingequipment.about.com/od/icecreammachines/f/gelatovicecream.htmAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-384329692727378622.post-14696697928732556122012-05-09T16:58:44.234-04:002012-05-09T16:58:44.234-04:00I think every company should take customer suggest...I think every company should take customer suggestions!Dubba Scoopshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07135130511349727532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-384329692727378622.post-75728629461168550392012-05-09T15:21:21.612-04:002012-05-09T15:21:21.612-04:00anyone know if we can submit flavor ideas to targe...anyone know if we can submit flavor ideas to target, i'd love to see something with dark chocolate and stuffAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-384329692727378622.post-14823852954515467692012-05-09T15:20:01.338-04:002012-05-09T15:20:01.338-04:00Not same, the target gelato has been around for th...Not same, the target gelato has been around for the past year or so. they just start expanding it to more stores recently. i had it in my target for the past year and my cousin (lives in different state) never saw it at her store till now.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-384329692727378622.post-37909152192683825042012-04-28T19:29:50.158-04:002012-04-28T19:29:50.158-04:00So I just took the plunge and tasted this treat an...So I just took the plunge and tasted this treat and woohoo is it strong!
