Purveyors of Premium Italian Desserts
about us menu products contact us home
 

Aunt Lena's Creamery Gelato is handmade following the finest artisan traditions of Italy and Sicily. We use only premium imported gelato ingredients and handpicked domestic fruits. Our Executive Chef's philosophy of insuring the purity and quality of all ingredients translates into the creation of the finest frozen desserts available anywhere.

Unlike traditional premium ice cream, Gelato contains 1/3 less calories and butter fat. Contrasting ice cream, gelato's primary ingredient is milk instead of the heavy fat content of cream. Besides the obvious health related benefits Gelato is a lighter product, the low butter fat content does not block taste buds; thus the richness of flavors are more pronounced along with the a concentrated creaminess.

Heaven on earth! That's exactly how I would describe the gelato at Aunt Lena's Creamery. Ok, I'll admit . . . I've always been a die hard ice cream girl, thinking that gelato and frozen yogurt were just inferior imitations of the "real" stuff. And while the jury is still out on the whole yogurt thing, Aunt Lena's has definitely changed my mind about gelato. It is sooooo good! In fact, it's so creamy and smooth, it's like a step above ice cream! I've been to Europe three times, and loved the gelato I had there, but have never found any in the US that even compared. Aunt Lena's, however, is like a little frozen taste of Italy. So, definitely give it a try. And when you're in the Chandler store, tell them that Brenda sent you over to try the chocolate and mint (or the chocolate and pumpkin, or the chocolate and Kahlua, or the chocolate and hazelnut -- just as long as you taste the chocolate). Pretty soon you'll have a new line in your weekly budget for Aunt Lena's just like I do!

Aunt Lena’s Creamery ROCKS and if you don’t believe me, take this as a challenge to go there and try it yourself. I cannot express just how wonderful their gelato and sorbeto is. I was sure that Weight Watchers was going to come between me and Aunt Lena’s as the summer drew to a close. In fact, I am sure it was the thought of being kept from my frozen fix that kept me from joining sooner. Imagine how excited I was to discover that I could stick with my dieting plan AND have my sorbeto for a mere 2 points (that is great stuff for those of you unfamiliar with the Weight Watchers program)! If I choose, I can splurge a little and get a gelato for twice the points (the cannoli or chocolate dipped cherry flavors are to die for). Truth be known, however, my most favorite is to get a split (yep, 2 flavors in one cup!) of the blood orange and lime sorbeto. You won’t believe how great it tastes and it is virtually guilt free. Hmmmm. When was the last time you ever heard of anything like that?
