For the first time, genuine Michielan Gelato is available in the UK through Fine Italian Desserts, allowing you the opportunity to provide real quality and authenticity to your customers.
Born in 1960, Piero was the first of three brothers from a merchant family with peasant roots. Piero left school when he was young to start work. His passion was always in food and he first started a retail shop before moving on to a spirit company. Whilst still young he left his native Italian shores to live and work in Germany. There, in a beautiful Venetian Dolomites valley, he learnt the art of gelato-making, under the watchful eye of the master gelato-makers of Val di Zoldo.
In 1982, Piero opened a Gelateria in Noale, his native town, and it soon became a reference point for those who adore the natural taste of artisan gelato.
Over the years, Piero and his wife Antonella were joined at the helm of their company by their children, Riccardo and Elisa. The children’s involvement demonstrates their family values and their desire to maintain traditions and high-quality production. Micheilan Gelato is now suppled to more than 20 countries across Europe, America, Mexico, Australia, Japan, and China.
Since 1982, Premiata Gelateria Michielan has been creating excellent quality artisan gelato.
In the early days, it did so in the ice-cream shops in Noale and then, as time went on, in the workshops of the production site in Scorzè, producing products for the foodservice and retail markets and for the consumption of families.
This led to a pathway of development driven by the rising demand from the national and international markets, with an exponential increase in export sales.
A success based on the quality of the company’s “made in Italy” production philosophy – involving the use of selected raw materials and a qualified artisan production process.
Powered by the consistent company management guaranteed by founder Piero Michielan and his wife Antonella over the years, then later by the energy and dynamism of their children, Riccardo and Elisa.
As Gelato holds flavours so powerfully, the bestselling flavours are often the simpler ones like strawberry, lemon, chocolate or nuts, or you could experiment with creative flavour combinations.
Experience the true quality of our genuine Michielan Gelato, you may never want an ice-cream again…
