About Fortes Gelateria
Award Winning Gelato Handmade on the Premises exclusively for our gelateria using traditional family recipes & techniques passed down through three generations of the Forte family
Fortes Gelateria Description
Award Winning Artisan Gelato Handmade on the Premises
Alfonso Forte left the municipality of Casalattico in southern Italy in the late 19th century eventually settling in Swanage where in 1926 the story of Fortes ice cream begins. Three generations later & the family are still producing ice cream in the seaside town using recipes & techniques passed down through the generations. In 2012 the family opened Fortes Gelateria with a vision to bring a taste of authentic artisan gelato to Swanage using only the finest ingredients including locally sourced milk & cream and flavours direct from Italy.
