Artisanal Excellence in Gelato and Custom Creations

 

NOSTRA is more than a brand of Italian artisanal gelato. It is a creative and technical house that masters the art of true fresh gelato, produced on-site, with exclusive recipes and a personalised approach that transforms each point of sale into a unique sensory experience.

Exclusive Recipes and Signature Gastronomy

With a portfolio of 186 original gelato and sorbet recipes, NOSTRA offers an unparalleled diversity of flavours, textures, and combinations. Each recipe is developed with technical precision and a passion for authenticity, respecting the principles of Italian gelato-making and adapting to local preferences.

Beyond classic and seasonal recipes, NOSTRA designs and creates signature gelato flavours for each partner, adjusting aromatic profiles, ingredients, and presentation to the target audience, venue identity, and cultural context. This personalisation is carried out in close collaboration with the partner, ensuring exclusivity and differentiation.

Training and Innovation in Gelato-Based Desserts

NOSTRA goes far beyond serving gelato in cups or cones. Its technical team prepares and delivers specialised training in the creation and assembly of desserts and complementary products, including:

• Parfaits layered with gelato, fruits, crunch elements, and artisanal sauces

• Belgian waffles with gelato, served warm with contrasting textures and flavours

• French crêpes with gelato, elegantly filled and garnished

• Artisanal milkshakes, made with fresh gelato and natural ingredients

• Gelato bowls and themed desserts, ideal for hotel and restaurant menus

This training is aimed at the partner’s service and kitchen staff, focusing on presentation, service, hygiene, and creativity. The goal is to ensure that every product served with NOSTRA gelato is a reflection of quality and sophistication.

Partnerships with Shared Value

NOSTRA offers a simple and effective partnership model: NOSTRA handles production and technical supply, while the partner focuses on sales and presentation. The resulting revenue is shared between both parties, based on a transparent contract tailored to the scale of the business.

This model allows hotels, cafés, and commercial spaces to:

• Offer a premium product without technical burdens

• Enrich their gastronomic offering with exclusive desserts

• Increase profitability per square metre of commercial space

• Benefit from the reputation and marketing of the NOSTRA brand

The Nostra Gelato Concept: Freshness, Authenticity, and On-Site Production

 

At the heart of Nostra Gelato’s concept is the on-site artisanal production, with immediate display of fresh gelato in a refrigerated showcase-without any pre-freezing process. This practice stands in stark contrast to conventional models, where gelato is factory-produced, frozen, transported, and stored for weeks or months before being served.

At Nostra Gelato, the product comes directly from the batch freezer and is placed in the display case, preserving its creamy texture, ideal temperature, and original aromatic profile.

This approach respects the principles of traditional Italian gelato-making, emphasizing:

·         Freshness as an essential product attribute

·         Transparency in the production process

·         Ingredient quality, using fresh milk, natural fruits, selected nuts, and neutral bases without artificial additives

·         Flavor customization, tailored to the season, customer profile, and partner identity

This model allows consumers to witness the gelato being made, understand its origin, and trust its quality. It is an experience that combines flavor, aesthetics, and confidence—fundamental elements in luxury hospitality and premium dining.

The Revival of Artisanal Gelato in Macau

 

In a market increasingly driven by authenticity and high standards, Nostra Gelato offers an innovative and rigorous model for producing and selling Italian artisanal gelato, made on-site and displayed immediately at the point of sale. This concept, deeply rooted in the Italian tradition of fresh gelato, aims to provide consumers with a genuine sensory experience while creating strategic partnership opportunities with hotels, resorts, and dining venues across Macau.

Nostra Gelato is not merely a brand-it is a commitment to excellence, tradition, and responsible innovation. Under the technical direction of a Gelato Chef trained at the prestigious Carpigiani Gelato University in Bologna, Nostra guarantees superior quality standards, strictly adhering to artisanal production principles and avoiding industrial practices such as pre-freezing or the use of artificial bases.

This document presents, in detail, the concept, technical foundations, operational benefits, and partnership proposal of Nostra Gelato, with a particular focus on Macau’s hospitality sector, where high-end tourism and culinary excellence meet the demand for authentic and memorable experiences.
