The landmark of such a large number of consumers speaks literally, in millions. The following of gelato fans has far surpassed Melt Gelato and Crepe Café’s expectations as they become the new face of the frozen dessert industry.

Melt Gelato & Crepe Café offers 32 flavors of authentic Italian gelato and sorbetto, delicious smoothies, rich-brewed Italian specialty coffee, and 15 varieties of both sweet and savoury crepes.  The company’s gelato, which includes flavors such as Banana Caramel Praline, Tiramisu, White Chocolate Raspberry, Tequila Lime, Pomegranate, and Acai (palm berries from the Amazon Jungle), is made with 100 percent natural ingredients, without additives or preservatives.  Best of all, gelato has far less air content than premium ice cream and contains much less fat, resulting in an end product that is softer and smoother in texture. In fact, some of Melt’s flavors are both dairy and fat-free.

“In the short period of time that the company has been in existence, it has served a rapidly growing number of customers, reflecting the popularity of our innovative gelato and crepe concept,” said Clive Barwin, president & CEO of Melt Inc. “We achieved a significant milestone in serving one million customers in our third year of operation. With an ambitious schedule of new restaurant openings scheduled for 2007, we are well positioned to build on the enthusiasm for our offerings.”
