I love the Cold Brew and have been eating it for years. Used to eat the Coffee Chocolate, but the chips changed so not a fan. I love this product it's just a little pricey. read more

No overpriced and not worth trying to get the lid open and whats worse is the main ingredient that they justify charging more for. Is barely there , talenti screws over customers bye advertisement of the delicious rare ice cream but where they screw you over is the part that supposed to be the best tasting period . Talenti is super chincy and doesnt give you the amount they charge you for which is a ripoff and illegal read more

Dumbest Fucking product ever. Who ever packaged it is a dumbass. Impossible to open. Bout some today returned it immediatly. Make sure nobody who knows buys this bullshit. Waste of time and money read more

Their sorbettos taste amazing, but it's not worth hurting yourself trying to open the jar. Running under hot water doesn't even help, you have to saw away at the lids, and by the time you do it's completely melted. It's ridiculous that they haven't fixed this problem. Now with torn up hands and a sprained wrist, I hope they loose/go out of business. read more

Jars are impossible to open. I ask adult men in the grocery store for help before I purchase it, as I can't. I need a hammer to break into it. Even grown men STRUGGLE. read more

After thinking I was crazy for getting so mad that I needed pliers and a box cutter to open the overpriced PLASTIC lid on my Gelato, I did a Google search to see if anyone else has had the same problem. Apparently this has been a well known issue for EIGHT YEARS! Seriously? Get your s*it together, Talenti. And while you're at it, try to put more product in, since it's not even 80% full anymore. read more

Key lime pie taste horrendous tastes like lime skins with a hint of gram cracker. Would rather bite directly into a lime than take another bite of this icecream. read more

I never ever leave reviews but I just had to. These jars are almost impossible to open and the entire internet seems to agree. They seemed to be sealed with vibration. It's not worth spending an hour and an arm and a leg trying to open them. read more

The jars cannot be opened , so there's no way to review the gelato. I have contacted them and they have various solutions, which do not involve gripping the lid and twistinting it off. The last one I opened involved a screwdriver and hammer. Talienti can forget me as a customer. Why do you sell a product that is inaccessable??? read more

No seal around the container Unable to open the top Returning to grocery store since I can't open it read more

2 containers later, I have neither one opened. YouTube advice is to use a knife. What? Dangerous and there are too many choices to go with one that requires a knife to open. I threw them away and opened my Hagen Daz in about 3 seconds...no tools required. read more

After just returning from Italy and enjoying gelato like it is meant to be I decided to try Talenti for the first time. What a mistake that was. The Belgium chocolate gelato was so sweet it was disgusting (38g of added sugar into a small serving) . I also tried the Alfonso Mango sorbet and it was so bitter it was not edible. $12.00 for two jars of garbage. Never again. They have definitely not figured out how to get close to real gelato. :( read more

if I could give zero stars I would. I needed to use TOOLS to open my $8 ice cream. now my hand hurts. f u

I cannot believe that no one has noticed Talenti Gelato recently removed the plastic seal around the top of each lid. Of all the times to do this? Really? In the middle of a Pandemic? Have you folks lost your minds?? Even in non-Pandemic times this is unsanitary and completely unacceptable! Now any psycho can walk into a supermarket, easily unscrew as many quarts as they like and drop whatever they want inside and YOU the buyer will know nothing about it! I called Talenti about this and their response was they removed the seal to help preserve our Ecosystem. Ok fine and lovely and I'm all for that. Then replace it with something else, wtf? I love Talenti Gelato and have found many of their flavors to be a refreshing change from Ben & Jerry's and Häagen-Dazs (still a plastic seal on those). But you have LOST a customer forever and if I don't see the situation corrected I will file a complaint with the FDA. read more

I love Talenti's gelato and sorbetto. They originate from 2003 and they pride themselves in using only fresh milk, pure cane sugar, and in using finest natural and raw ingredients, sourced locally from around the world. They currently have 23 different flavors of gelato: Argentine Caramel (made with golden Argentinean-style dulce de leche), Tahitian Vanilla Bean (made with vanilla beans imported from Papua New Guinea), Double Dark Chocolate (made with semisweet Belgian Callebaut chocolate and a splash of vermouth), Roman Raspberry (made with tangy raspberries), Belgian Milk Chocolate (made with imported Belgian milk chocolate), Toasted Almond (made with toasted and caramelized almonds), Coffee Chocolate Chip (made with Italian espresso and bittersweet chocolate), Black Cherry (black cherries and sweet cream), Caribbean Coconut (shredded coconut imported from the Philippines), Chocolate Chip (dark chocolate and vanilla), Lisbon Lemon (tart sorbetto with lemons), Caramel Cookie Crunch (Dulce De Leche with chocolate cookies), Mediterranean Mint (bittersweet chocolate with fresh mint), Simply Strawberry (sun-ripened strawberries), Sicilian Pistachio (roasted pistachio with pistachio butter), Banana Chocolate Swirl (banana gelato with Argentine caramel swirl and bittersweet chocoalte), Blood Orange (sorbetto with Sicilian blood orange juice), Sea Salt Caramel (Fleur De Sel sea salt with Argentine caramel and chocolate covered sea salt caramel truffles), Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup (Belgian milk chocolate with organic peanut butter and mini chocolate peanut butter cups), Black Raspberry Chocolate Chip (farm-fresh black raspberries with dark chocolate), Alphonso Mango (sorbetto with Alphonso mangoes from India), German Chocolate Cake (milk chocolate gelato with coconut, candied pecans, and caramel swirl), and Southern Butter Pecan (butter roasted pecans and dulce de leche). They also feature pops in Black Raspberry, Caribbean Coconut, Coffee, Mediterranean Mint, Sea Salt Caramel, Double Dark Chocolate, Tahitian Vanilla Bean, and Banana Swirl, all dipped in dark chocolate. If your local grocery does not have a particular flavor you like you can always contact customer service at Talenti and they will locate it for you and/or have the option of sending you one directly - how neat is that?! If I had to choose, my current favorite is the Banana Chocolate Swirl as it really has a great banana flavor with tiny chunks of chocolate and a hint of caramel throughout - not too overly sweet, but just creamy and very tasty!). Check them out as this line is a real treat! +Banana Chocolate Swirl read more

2 stars because it tastes good but... it is NOT gelato. which is pretty disappointing. ive had better ice cream. take gelato off the label. false advertisement read more

Nothing special, flavor of ice cream and not gelato and there was NO cookie within the caramel cookie crunch. Extremely disappointed I wasted my one weekly treat on something so generic with false flavor promise read more

Seriously, this used to be by far my favorite brand. Unilever, in search of profits, has ruined a wonderful treat for me. If you compare ingredients, everything has changed from the original. Now it is high-priced crap. Back to good old Ben and Jerry's! (And don't get me started on Haagen Dazs, which charges the same price for 14 oz. as it used to charge for full pint.) read more

I would've given it 5 stars but the packaging has put me off. I have bruised my hands multiple times trying to open this product and finally had to trash it out of frustration. Waste of time and money on a otherwise tasty ice cream. I'd wish you'd change your packaging but I really don't see it happening. read more

Seems like this is for the establishment, and not the brand, but... The packaging. Seriously, what the heck? It might be "distinctive," but so is opening every door you encounter with a blow torch. Distinctive != desirable. Second, the product. Flavor-wise, pretty solid. Texture? A lot can be learned from how heavy their pints feel in hand - a little light. Similar to a lot of other packaged ice cream / gelato, there's lots of air mixed in, that then leads to the formation of ice crystals which ruins the creamy texture. Pretty disappointing for a premium priced product, which notably lacks the government's "superpremium" label. read more

Threw it out! I paid a premium price for the Salted Caramel and it was worse than the cheapest ice cream I'd ever eaten. It had a gritty texture, was cloyingly sweet, had about 4-5 chunks of chocolate in it, and had no taste of caramel or salt in it. Will never try Talenti, again. read more

this is such garbage gelato. very poor quality and not authentic. stay away from this brand!! it is a bad company and bad product overall.

I had a container of Hagen Dazs vanilla bean and a container of Talenti MadGAcan vanilla bean in my freezer and tried tasting them side by side to compare. The Talenti has no flavor compared to the Hagen Dazs. The texture of the Hagen Dazs was also much more creamy, especially as they both melted a bit. Would not buy this product again. The Belgian chocolate chip was much better. read more

Talenti Gelato - a close up of a jar of gelato - Gelato Near Me - Marietta, Georgia

Just tried this Talenti Sicilian Pistachio. Creamy,nutty.Inviting packaging. Very good can't wait to try the others. A bit pricey regular price I bought on sale. Definitely will purchase again. Special treat! read more

So glad to see the bad reviews of un-talenti. Everytime i try one of their flavors (with years in between) i write them off again. Today cheaper than b&j and hag daaz so tried cc cokie dough which should be a no fail, but of course it was. It's un-talenti. No chunks of cookie dough!!! Maybe 4 tiny "chunks" smaller than a mini m&m. I looked up who owns them online & it's Unilever, a huge company that sells "food, beverages, cleaning agents and personal care products". They own 8 brands of ice cream, inc klondike, breyers, ben & jerrys. The talent container is a GREAT idea but that all it is. A marketing scam. All looks and no substance. Positive reviews in here are obviously written by investors or lemmings with no taste. read more

The Gelato is great, but I always have to completely destroy the packaging to get the thing open.

Nope, never again. The lid is just to hard to open. For the price I can find better options.

So just as an update. At this point my girl and I have enjoyed at least 5 other Talenti flavors and each one has been excellent. I don't know what kind of voodoo magic they enlist to make the flavors so rich and creamy, but it is working and I highly recommend you buy a pint (some flavors are available in quarts too)! Life's to short to eat bland gelato and ice cream. Treat yourself. read more

I would love to try it, but I can't get it open. Watched videos on how to open it (who'd a thunk?), but they didn't help me. I am 73, so maybe I am too old to use this product. Waste of money for me. read more

I would never buy this ice cream again. It's way too soft and it's probably from all the sugar that's in it. It's literally melting while in the freezer. I understand that they want to use as little ingredients as possible, but there is just way too much sugar for me to enjoy. Not to mention it's also pricey as hell. Do yourself a favor and get Ben and jerry's or even trader joes ice cream. I bought the salted peanut caramel and I don't taste the salt or caramel. I also bought the cookie dough and there was barely any. read more

Theres a reason why yelpers are looked down on worse than redditors. Lol anyways good icecream.

How can I give this a rating when I could not open the carton? I had to return the product.

I have tried 2 flavors; Southern Butter Pecan and Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough. The butter pecan was divine. Rich flavor, plenty of pecans. The cookie dough was a huge disappointment. There were maybe 3-4 pieces of cookie dough in it. I won't be buying that flavor again. I do have to agree with the review that said the ice cream melts in the freezer. You have to eat fast or you'll have to drink it. Talenti is pretty expensive so I was expecting perfection. This won't be my go-to brand. read more

Unable to unscrew the lid after numerous tries and even melting the ice cream. I could have cut the plastic case with a knife but afraid that I might eat plastic so ended up throwing the whole full container away. I am sticking with Ben and Jerry's or others in which I never had a problem opening the lid. I feel sorry for older people with weaker hands and the lid problem puts many people off limits with this one. read more

As someone who often makes ice cream and gelato at home, I used to love Talenti. Talenti ice cream used to be fantastic when they were independently owned. I used to love their Sea Salt Caramel and their Peanut Butter Chocolate flavors. I used to recommend them to all my friends and family. A few years ago, I noticed that their Sea Salt Caramel had a metallic taste and way fewer caramel chunks. Upon some research, I learned that Talenti had been sold to Unilever -- the multi national conglomerate that only cares about profits. Their ice cream went from amazing, to bad, to worse. Since they sold off to Unilever, the list of ingredients have been increasing. It used to be only a few ingredients, such as milk, sugar, cream and eggs. Since then, undesirable ingredients such as Dextrose, Carob Gum, Corn Syrup, etc, have entered the list of ingredients in their "gelato". The difference can be easily tasted: their ice cream currently tastes metallic, too light for a true gelato, and with a horrible chemical after taste. I cannot recommend Talenti ice cream to anyone anymore. Especially for the premium price they ask. Talenti ice cream tastes cheap with a hint of chemicals. Unfortunately, Talenti is not even close to a premium ice cream, let alone gelato. read more

this is NOT a tasty treat. Unless you like generic ice cream in a nice carton for an overblown price. Check the internet, there are a million pics of people trying to open it with hacksaws, hammers, can openers, steak knives, screwdrivers, chainsaws, teeth, pliers, blowtorches, or machetes. When you finally get it open, watch out for the pieces of plastic that have mixed in with your ice cream. GROSS. After this, you're going to need something stronger than ice cream. Yep, and like Mike says...the usual "heavier than normal" call volume. I hate this company. read more

Would give a zero if I could. Bought two jars of this, couldn't open either one and now my hand hurts. Went online, seems like others had same problem for months. What a waste of money, how dare you Talenti. Never buying again! read more

Had tried their Mint, Vanilla, Oatmeal Raisin, Caramel Cookies, Coconut, and Chocolate.. Way too soft, way too sweet. Although the mint does have a fresh mint taste to it which my brother likes, and Vanilla also has a nice aroma to it. I prefer Ben and Jerry. read more

The Talenti Roman rasberry sorbetto is sooo scrumptious...I love it with whipped cream on top....sinfully delicious!!

I am currently 7 months pregnant and often like to enjoy ice cream for a snack. I have been a long time fan of the Mediterranean Mint flavor and occasionally have went out of my way to purchase the flavor. Unfortunately, the kid is absolutely impossible to remove. Although to many a tight lid would be a small nuisance, I find it to be quite the inconvenience. I have contacted customer service with my minor complaint and received the standard answer. It is unnecessary to have the lid so tight and it is not something this pregnant woman wants to deal with. read more
