Gelato World Tour 2016

Welcome to the Gelato World Tour of 2016! As the main sponsor of such an incredible event, we are excited to make it an unforgettable experience. Much like when gelato was first introduced to the world during the era of the Italian Renaissance, this year’s Gelato World Tour will leave an impression on the dessert industry, garnering excitement for one of Italy’s most treasured culinary treats. The introduction of innovative new flavors and the ongoing cultivation of gelato-making techniques will add to the continued evolution of specialty dessert creation as a whole.

During the infancy of gelato-making, artisans of the revered dessert created standard recipes utilizing egg yolks as the main stabilizer, and other raw ingredients such as sugar and milk – or water for sorbetto. Fresh fruits, nuts, chocolate, etc. were then added for flavor. Batching the gelato was the last step where one of the most important ingredients – air – was incorporated in to allow for a dense, smooth, texture. However, with time, most processes become more refined.

Today, the production of new technology and innovative ingredient solutions, such as those produced and manufactured by PreGel, have helped to streamline the initially time-consuming process of making artisanal gelato. Aside from mechanized pasteurizers, batch freezers, and display cases to help prolong its shelf life, gelato ingredients have also become more sophisticated. And at the foundation of every great gelato is an equally impressive base.

In an effort to provide you with the best opportunity to express your culinary creativity, please contact PreGel to request samples.

Allow us to share more in depth information about our superior specialty dessert ingredient solutions.

BasesBases are considered the foundation of the gelato-, sorbetto- and ice cream-making process. To obtain optimal gelato in terms of volume, sweetness, texture, and scoopability, it's important to have the correct balance of sugars, fats and solids. PreGel’s Bases were specifically designed to achieve this necessary balance of recipe elements and meet the needs of all gelato makers. Our Bases are artisan because they give each gelato maker the option to balance and personalize their recipe to taste.

PreGel’s prestigious line of Bases is available for Hot Process and Cold Process recipes, as well as milk-based or water-based formulas. Additionally, we offer balanced Bases for customers with specific needs, such as dairy-free, light, and diabetic Bases. Explore the following categories of Bases and discover which would work best for your business style.

HOT PROCESS PreGel’s Hot Process Milk Bases are powdered mixes developed with the most advanced formula that carries special ingredients activated by heat. Gelato or ice cream created with a Hot Process Base have more defined flavor, as the powdered mix also acts as a flavor-enhancer.

All Hot Process Bases must be heated before the mixture goes into the batch freezer. The overall process is quite simple. First, heat the milk in the pasteurizer to 35°C- 40°C/95°F-104°F. Next, add the solids, mixed well, to complete the heating phase. Once the temperature reaches 85°C/185°F, cool the mixture down to 4°C/39.2°F and let it rest for at least 1.5 hours. Remove the appropriate amount of mixture from the pasteurizer and add in the PreGel Fortefrutto® or Traditional Paste of your choice, blending well before pouring into the batch freezer.
