What is the difference between a coating and a topping? +
Coatings set crunchy on contact with gelato, forming a shell or chips. Toppings stay as a fluid sauce.
Can I use a coating as stracciatella? +
Yes. Many coatings in this range are described as doubling as stracciatella. Drizzle them into gelato to form crunchy chips.
What is the Rainbow series? +
Rainbow coatings are coloured coatings with sugar sprinkles mixed in, for bright, fun gelato sticks.
How do I make the gelato sticks themselves? +
Use Base Planetaria for gelato sticks with silicone stick moulds, freeze, then coat.
