Building South Africa’s premium gelato brand.
One scoop at a time, from a small kitchen in Witpoortjie.
Italian craft, proudly local.
Bellas Gelato makes authentic artisan Italian gelato and 100% real fruit sorbets in small batches, using the finest ingredients from Italy and fresh South African fruit. We are a 100% black female-owned business, based on Haynes Street in Witpoortjie, Roodepoort.
What started at the counter has grown into a gelato cart that shows up at some of Gauteng’s most beautiful events, from padel courts to garden brunches, and a range of tubs and pops for home.
- Gelato churned slowly for less air and more flavour
- Sorbets made with real fruit, never flavouring
- Every event styled and served by our own team
Four things in every scoop.
Real fruit
Lemon, mango, pineapple and granadilla, squeezed and blended into every sorbet.
Slow by design
Small batches, churned slowly. Dense, silky gelato that tastes of what it is.
Rooted in Witpoortjie
A local business growing local jobs, with training for the next generation of makers.
Joy, served
Every event is a celebration. We bring the warmth along with the gelato.
Every scoop has led to this.
