THE ADVENT OF KINGELATO
How it all came to be…
Kingelato – Authentic Italian Artisan Gelato.
KinGelato is the brainchild of a successful South African businessman and entrepreneur. As a well-travelled man, our founder realised that his favourite thing about Italy (top quality gelato) was nowhere to be found in South Africa.
With the help of his friend who specialises in authentic Italian cuisine, the unique recipe was created for KinGelato in 2012. Since then, our brand has grown exponentially into a number of stores, whilst currently being supplied to various well-established restaurants in Gauteng.
AUTHENTICITY IS NOT A FAD
Our original recipe was created by a born and bred Italian chef, who moved to South Africa to start this exciting new project along with our founder. With 20 years’ experience in the gelato industry, our creative chef, therefore, knows all there is to know about making the best gelato possible.
To create the finest gelato, the main ingredients are imported from Italy and the rest are sourced locally to be as fresh as can be. Likewise, the equipment used to make our gelato is imported from Italy, as a result, ensuring only the highest standards of food production and quality.
