Gelato University is 20 Years old!

We’re celebrating our 20th anniversary this year.  20 years of Carpigiani Gelato University. Who would’ve thought that in 2003 when we started, some 20 years later we’d have over 70,000 graduates across 21 countries?


Following two decades of educating and training in the art of making authentic Italian gelato, Gelato University has become a world-renowned institution for gelato-making, attracting students from all over the globe.

How Gelato University started?

Originally designed to provide a platform for gelato enthusiasts to learn the craft of gelato-making and also to professionalise the sector, over the past 20 years, Gelato University has expanded significantly, offering a range of courses and programs catering to both beginners and professionals. For entrepreneurs of every level, from those starting their own gelato shops to those working for established gelato businesses who want to improve their skill. Covering everything from the basics of gelato-making to advanced techniques and even how to open and run a successful gelateria. The university's reputation has grown steadily over the years, and today it is considered the go-to institution for anyone looking to learn the art of gelato-making.

Practical hands on learning

One of the unique aspects of the university is its hands-on approach to teaching. Students get to work in a fully equipped kitchen and learn directly from expert gelato-makers. This practical experience is complemented by theoretical classes that cover the science behind gelato-making, including the chemical properties of ingredients and the physics of freezing.

Case Study Swoon Gelato | Bristol

The brainchild of owner Bruno Forte, whose family have been producing real Italian Gelato for well over a century, Swoon’s ethos focuses on using only the finest ingredients from around the world and combining them with a traditional process known for giving gelato its distinctive, smooth texture and delightful flavour.

Bruno starts by saying: “I had been considering setting up a gelato business for a number of years. With limited knowledge and experience myself, I took the decision to sign up for an intensive course which would at least allow me to understand the basics. Having researched different options, I decided to join the Carpigiani Gelato University in Bologna, Italy.” As the global leader in the manufacture of gelato and ice cream equipment, Carpigiani offers unrivalled expertise and decades of experience in the market. As Bruno says:

“My team and I worked closely with Carpigiani UK, who helped us design the layout and worked closely with us to specify the equipment we would need to handle the extensive range we wanted to offer and the peak demand we expected to generate.”
