Proposing gluten-free desserts helps to increase sales by welcoming the market share that must give up traditional flours for health. A choice that requires particular attention both in the preparation and storage of gluten-free foods and products.
Techfood has expanded the range of gluten-free products by studying a space-saving solution for preparing crêpes in total safety. The Crêperie is in fact a small machine sold with a gluten-free sweet and savory preparation. A complete package chosen by many to increase the offer and protect the customer's health.
Discover the story of Antonella Leo who, together with her husband Fabrizio Zappi, decided to offer gluten-free ice cream and desserts in their Gelateria Le Logge in Orbetello (Grosseto).
Lots of things. In addition to ice cream, we offer cakes, frozen desserts, gluten-free desserts such as crêpes, Sicilian cannoli and warm brioches also filled with ice cream. In our offer we have also added savory tortillas and even pre-packaged and pre-sliced gluten-free pizza to be heated when requested. All the sweet and savory offer is gluten free, we are specialized in gluten free.
The decision starts from a choice in the family: my wife Antonella and my daughters are celiac. For this reason we have opted for an exclusively gluten-free proposal and to rely on Techfood to have a machine with which to make sweet and savory crêpes for celiacs.

Exact. We use quality ingredients to make our gluten-free desserts. Milk, eggs and fruit are fresh foods, the flours are guar and locust beans are natural products and we do not use industrial semi-finished products.
Yes, in the summer we obviously focus more on ice cream as it is an ice cream shop. In winter, on the other hand, we give more space to gluten-free wraps and desserts, and also to yoghurt which is preferred at low temperatures.
In any case, ice cream remains our forte, but we also apply seasonality in this field. We like to rotate the ice cream flavors a lot according to the seasons, we have a total assortment of 180 flavors of which 42 are on display. In this period pistachio, chocolate, cinnamon and ginger are the most popular, as well as Dolce Veleno which is our recipe. It's a taste that I can't reveal (laughs, ed ) with coffee, eggnog, honey and other secret ingredients.
There are three: quality, courtesy and cleanliness. For us they are fundamental elements: QCP is the mathematical formula never to be forgotten.
Cleanliness is essential for Antonella and Fabrizio, who have to pay even more attention to hygiene with their gluten-free offer. Do you want to know more about health and hygiene standards? Find out how to manage allergens with the HACCP control plan
