gelati
Italian frozen desserts
Gelati is the Italian plural of gelato, the dense, creamy frozen dessert that differs from American ice cream in its lower fat content and more intense flavor.
In English, gelati appears on menus and signage at shops offering multiple flavors, though many English speakers simply use gelato for both singular and plural.
The gelati here are made fresh daily.
