Giovanni’s Gelato

Established in the summer of 2013, our mission has been to introduce the people of Milton Keynes to the authentic taste of Italian gelato.

Over the years, Giovanni’s has grown to become a renowned destination for handcrafted gelato throughout Milton Keynes, Bedfordshire, and Buckinghamshire. We take pride in the smiles we bring to our loyal and new customers, especially on scorching summer days when they eagerly queue up for a scoop of our decadent, handmade gelato and delightful desserts.

Our roots are firmly planted in family values, and this has been the driving force behind our journey. Giovanni’s has been privileged to offer over 105 distinct flavours of gelato, sorbetti, and frozen yogurt, all meticulously prepared to order by our team of expert gelato chefs.

We approach gelato as a cherished experience from start to finish. Our chefs meticulously adhere to Italian traditions, ensuring each batch is crafted with attention to detail and a commitment to authenticity. We handcraft our gelato with passion and dedication, resulting in luxurious flavours that captivate and delight the palate.

Every unique flavour is a product of our dedication to sourcing only the finest ingredients, relying on nature’s own colours and flavours, and never compromising on taste. Our seasonal menus encompass both classic and contemporary flavours, continually expanding to keep our offerings fresh and exciting.

In addition to our welcoming gelateria in central Milton Keynes, we extend our offerings to dessert parlours, restaurants, eateries, hotels, and catering establishments across the UK through our wholesale service. Our bespoke service caters to the specific needs of our clients, fostering strong and enduring business relationships.

We are proud to supply over 100 establishments across the UK, using our award-winning gelateria as a testing ground for new flavours. This allows us to conduct thorough market research and gather valuable feedback before introducing these flavours to our esteemed clients.

With a repertoire of over 100 handcrafted flavours, we are confident in our ability to cater to a wide range of preferences. Our chefs are also prepared to create bespoke flavours upon request, whether it’s a unique brand-specific creation or a special addition to your seasonal menu.

Our gelato is offered in various formats, from decorative 6 litre Napoli pans to 5 and 2.5 litre trays, all designed for easy resealing and perfect for restaurant settings.

At Giovanni’s, we continually refresh our flavour range to include seasonal and festive specials that align with the time of year, keeping our offerings both exciting and relevant. We also provide consultancy services to assist in the presentation of our gelato, from customised table menus for restaurants to point-of-sale materials for all types of establishments.

If you’re interested in serving our award-winning gelato at your dessert parlour, café, restaurant, or deli, we’ll collaborate with you to supply everything your business needs, including flavour cards, waffle cones, take-away tubs, and a special selection of gluten-free and vegan options. Carmelo, Antonina, and Vejay are available to provide your business with an authentic artisan product that will elevate your dessert sales.
