Gimme Gelato spoils Berlin with artisanal ice cream creations. Served from the glass-walled gelato lab in Berlin-Charlottenburg and some twenty high-tech mobile units ranging from gelato containers to food trucks and retro-designed gelato bikes at popular Berlin locations, the popular gelato brand can be recognized by its mascot, Jimmy the Otter. The rich ingredients are served, among other things, with edible spoons in line with the zero-waste concept.

There's always a selection of local milk-based popsicles and scoops, as well as vegan treats. The announcement of the season's selection comes with an annual season’s opening event at the café in Berlin-Charlottenburg, where locals and visitors to Berlin get a free tasting and the Gimme Gelato team collects donations for people in need.

This year's Otter-branded Gimme Gelato popsicle highlights include Cheesecake Lime Basil with Wafer Crunch & White Chocolate (milk ice cream), Mango Passion Fruit with White Chocolate & Coconut (vegan), Coconut Rum Grape (vegan), Oat Chocolate with Raspberry Swirl (vegan), and Vanilla Oats with Amatika Chocolate (vegan).

Scoop highlights include sea buckthorn yogurt (dairy ice cream) and raspberry chocolate brownie (vegan). Sorbet options include Raspberry (vegan) and Orange Sorbet (vegan). Keep an eye on when the iconic Austrian Sacher cake gelato is available, as the flavors rotate each week.

Ralf Sander, the gelato pioneer behind Gimme Gelato, is a force in technology-driven gastronomy. With a background in brewing and extensive experience in the food industry, including ventures in Japan, he combines artisan craftsmanship and rich ingredients with cutting-edge technology.

Sander's foray into the world of artisanal frozen delights began with the founding of Gimme Gelato in 2018, following intensive training in gelato craftsmanship in Bologna, Italy. Today, Gimme Gelato is synonymous with handcrafted ice cream excellence, proudly displayed in the glass factory headquarters and futuristic mobile parlors strategically stationed at popular locations like the zoo.

From remote-controlled mobile vans to electronic-only receipts, every facet of the Gimme Gelato experience is meticulously designed for efficiency and sustainability. Sander's mantra is clear: embrace innovation to streamline processes while preserving the artisanal essence of gelato making. A highlight of the brand's high-tech mobile units is the Gimme Gelato Ape, the iconic Italian Piaggio tricycle, which is fully electric and has been transformed to include a full Gimme Gelato sales counter in the cargo area.

As Chief Gelato Officer, Sander embodies a fervent dedication to using technology as a catalyst for change as he continues to shape the future of gastronomy, one scoop at a time.
