G.S. Gelato Launches Protein 'Pumped Up' Vanilla Gelato

G.S. Gelato & Desserts announced nationwide availability of Protein “Pumped Up” Vanilla Gelato through Dot Foods. The product is offered in a 5-liter format designed for foodservice. Each serving provides 11 grams of protein and aims to keep the rich, creamy texture associated with traditional Italian gelato. It avoids the chalky mouthfeel often linked to high-protein ice creams. Taste tests and product demonstrations report that consumers cannot tell added protein is present, citing rich flavor and smooth texture. Demand for high-protein frozen desserts is increasing as health-focused dining grows. The gelato can be used in smoothie bowls, protein coffees, and shakes to support versatile menu options.
