The differences are in the amounts and in how they are churned and served.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Less air:<\/strong> gelato is churned slowly, so less air is beaten in. A scoop is denser and heavier than the same scoop of ice cream.<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Less fat:<\/strong> gelato usually uses more milk and less cream, so the flavour comes through more clearly.<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Served warmer:<\/strong> gelato is kept a few degrees warmer than ice cream, which makes it soft and silky, and means it melts sooner.<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Made in small batches:<\/strong> many gelaterie make their flavours every day and sell them the same day or the next.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">And sorbetto?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sorbetto is made from fruit, sugar and water, without milk or cream.
