Brakes, the UK’s leading foodservice wholesaler, has revamped its premium ice-cream range with the introduction of an exclusive range of gelatos and sorbettos from award-winning producers, Hackney Gelato and Jude’s.
The new gelatos from Hackney Gelato are produced using traditional methods, where they are churned slowly to keep the ice and air out for a smoother texture. It also makes its gelato with a higher ratio of milk to cream, so it contains less fat than most ice creams. creating deeper, more intense flavours.
With 13 varieties in a 4.5L format, Hackney Gelato offers a range of high-quality flavours. This includes 2 Star Great Taste winners Raspberry and Alphonso Mango Sorbettos, Pistachio and Chocolate & Roasted Hazelnut Gelatos, and Sea Salted Caramel Gelato – winner of the coveted 3 Star Award.

The range combines quality and creativity, which is designed to delight customers and elevate ice cream offer across foodservice.
Paul Nieduszynski, CEO of Sysco GB, said: “We have seen an increasing number of customers wanting to differentiate menus by introducing a more premium range of ice-cream. With Summer and National Ice Cream month both fast approaching, it’s a great opportunity for customers to review their ice-cream range and make sure it still fits their needs.
“The products and ranges that we’ve launched, which are exclusively available to Brakes customers, are designed to offer a comprehensive consumer experience, which is sure to have them coming back for more!”
