RivaReno Gelato

We are not about gimmick, or show – we are all about quality, freshness and real authentic Italian gelato.

The philosophy of our gelato store and lab is based on one key principle – a constant quest in the world for natural ingredients exemplifying freshness, purity and intensity. We do not use hydrogenated fats, artificial colourings, flavourings or preservatives. A uniquely intense, creamy and velvety experience, our gelato is unrivalled for the intensity of its flavours. Our ultra-fresh gelato is produced daily in our “laboratorio” in store only a few hours before serving. Our milk is the best milk in Italy, coming from the pastures high up in the Stura Valley, Piedmont, between the Maritime and Cottian Alps, which form the border between France and Italy.

We offer the best example of Italian gelato using traditional recipes that have been passed down over many generations and constantly refined and improved– but whilst we respect tradition, we never give up on creativity. Many of the flavours we offer are our own creations which you will find only in Rivareno Gelato stores.

The authenticity of our gelato hails from our origins in Italy. Passion, imagination, dedication and determination led to Rivareno opening its first gelato strore in Milan, Italy in 2005 with the aim of offering high quality, fresh and real authentic Italian gelato. As a result our authenticity as an Italian product of ultra-high quality is guaranteed.

Every flavour at Rivareno, before being presented to our customers, must pass one simple test: blindfolded, with no prior knowledge, one should be able to pick the flavour immediately.
