When the gelato was first delivered, they found the freezers were broken bro-ken and they quickly needed to find a place for the thawing gelato.

And the gelato is so flavorful. It's not a product that many other businesses offer in Utah County." Gelato is an Italian ice cream made from milk and sugar, combined with other flavorings. flavor-ings. The gelato ingredients are frozen while stirring to break up ice crystals as they form. Like high end ice cream, gelato generally has less than 35 percent air resulting in a dense and extremely flavorful product.

They hope to have the outdoor shaved ice station up and running run-ning by the time the re-opening festivities begin. J.
