A century of flavor, a family making gelato history.

It was 1920 when Salvatore Mancuso, with a cart and great enthusiasm, began selling artisanal gelato on the streets of Philadelphia and Detroit. In 1958, his son Vincenzo brought this tradition to England, where he founded a small industry that immediately won the hearts of the British. But the call of Sicily was too strong. It is here that brothers Salvatore, Antonio, and Rosario built the company of today: solid, internationally recognized, and faithful to its long-standing values. Today, Mancuso Gelati has reached its third generation. A cutting-edge family business that continues to produce gelato, desserts, and pastries with the same care and passion as in the past.
