VENCHI INTRODUCES -50% LESS SUGAR STRAWBERRY GELATO
NEW YORK, NY — Just in time for bathing suit season and the Fourth of July holiday weekend, Venchi has launched -50% Less Sugar Strawberry Gelato (it's vegan too!) at its two New York City ChocoGelateria's.
Gelato is a wholesome “merenda” (snack), the perfect treat for a “passeggiata” (stroll), and a much appreciated surprise for a dinner with family and friends. There's no better way to experience the new -50% Less Sugar Strawberry Gelato than with a stop into a Venchi boutique and a stroll down a New York City street to do some window shopping or perhaps enjoying the sunshine outside in a nearby park. And now those watching their weight can do so with less guilt due to this new less sugar option.
Venchi's new -50% Less Sugar Strawberry Gelato has approximately 40% fewer calories than the regular Strawberry Gelato, and is made fresh daily in the Gelato Lab at each location from the finest ingredients including fresh strawberries. Currently it is the only selection in the -50% Less Sugar category, but a new Cuor di Cacao -50% flavor will be added this fall.
Venchi's two ChocoGelateria's are located at:
- 861 Broadway – Union Square
- 1796 Broadway at Columbus Circle
Pricing for single serving Gelato is as follows:
- Baby (1 flavor) - $5.95
- Regular (up to 2 flavors) - $6.95
- Large (up to 3 flavors) - $7.95
Gelato can also be ordered for pickup or delivery every day from 11am to
