about us

Growing up in the kitchen of my parent’s Italian restaurant in St. Louis, MO, my childhood memories are a mixed menu of culinary traditions.  Authentic Italian classics made with the fresh ingredients found only on the farms of the rural U.S.  Flavors inspired by the story of Italian immigrants combined with the uniquely American classics that came as a result.  Years later, after moving to California, the deeply rooted love for those Italian, “American” flavors stayed with me, and no matter what part of the World I’ve found myself in, they still bring me right back home. Uomo Gelato was born from a passion to share those memories, inspire new ones, and remind our customers of everything they already love. Authentic gelato…Italian style, American Classics.

Using the finest pasture raised, organic milk, cream, and cane sugar our gelato is created in the authentic style with no eggs, slow cooked into decadent custards then blended with the finest ingredients available.  We use no artificial sweeteners, colors, or imitation flavors, and strive to bring you the freshest, hand crafted gelato available on the market.  We also take pride in seeking out certified humane ingredients, whenever possible. This means using products that are guaranteed to come from farms where the animals that provide our amazing ingredients are raised ethically, with love and dignity.

 From our Signature “Mama’s Gooey Butter Cake,” to our pucker up perfect “Pink Lemonade” Sorbetto, we hand craft our pints to bring you unique flavors you’re unlikely to find anywhere else, delivered right to your door. So go ahead, grab a spoon and be a kid again… but in Italy.
