Our story begins in Mandello del Lario, in a small take-away ice cream shop. After years spent in our little laboratory, dedicated to the study and research of the perfect ice cream with a clean label, free from preservatives and chemical additives, the gelateria started to gain its first successes, becoming a reference point.
Seeing the appreciation from our loyal customers, we decided to replicate the same format, identified as excellence, in other locations around Lake Como: in Abbadia Lariana and Menaggio, where we immediately received praise, satisfaction, and positive reviews, even from international clients.
At this point, pleased with our work and eager to continue improving, we asked ourselves if it was possible to offer this service to other businesses, while still maintaining the true craftsmanship that has always distinguished us.
Thus, we began distributing our ice cream to the best restaurants in the area, those that truly care about the quality of fresh, genuine products.
Through courses with top-level pastry chefs, collaborations, and various experiences, even outside of Italy, we became increasingly specialized in chocolate and pastry to deal with the strong seasonality that ice cream faces in our area.
This is how DULCIS IN FUNDO! LAB was born, a company specialized in the production of ice cream, chocolate, and pastry, always and only handcrafted.
Our twenty years of experience in the artisanal ice cream sector and in the Ho.Re.Ca. industry allows us to be the ideal partner for all those businesses looking for a genuine and high-quality product to differentiate themselves from the competition.
We offer a free, comprehensive consulting service, combined with the most modern sales techniques, both for opening new venues – starting from the choice of location, to the decor, to all the bureaucratic procedures – and for staff training, inauguration, and post-opening support.
We are a small, genuine company made up of real people who, with great dedication, strive to transmit the passion for good food, respecting traditions but always trying to innovate and keep up with the times.
For our creations and delicacies, we select the best raw materials: cream, milk, and fresh seasonal fruit, increasingly from zero-kilometer sources and without chemical additives or preservatives, to guarantee true artisanal quality, which unfortunately is increasingly disappearing with the arrival of semi-finished products.
We always strive to be close to and support local farmers and producers, collaborating more and more with them, as they ensure the utmost care and quality of the products. We believe that to have good ice cream or an excellent dessert, it all starts with choosing raw materials that must be excellent!
