The tradition of Novi Ligure,
excellence in gelato
Deep roots, authentic passion and an unbreakable bond with Novi Ligure, a land that has always guarded Italian confectionery knowledge.
Signor Stefano was born here, at the plant of Pernigotti Spa, where tradition meets innovation to create bases and pastes of superior quality.
From the hazelnut paste at the gianduia, through to the refined craft of chocolate, each product is the result of skills handed down over time, rigorous selection of raw materials and meticulous attention to quality.
A legacy of taste and craftsmanship, which today returns to the forefront of the world of artisanal ice cream.
After listening to Matteo, Stefano entered his secret laboratory, where he experimented, mixing mysterious ingredients he collected on his travels with chocolate: stardust, night-blooming flower extract, and even a drop of dew collected at dawn. He returned with a special blend and told Matteo: "This blend contains everything you need: cocoa, sugar, and a little something extra. But remember, use it with care."“
When Matteo made gelato with that mixture, something extraordinary happened: the gelato glowed with a soft light, and its aroma evoked happy memories. The gelato shop filled with customers, and the gelato's fame spread throughout Piedmont.
Many gelato makers sought out the Signor Stefano blend, but he decided to offer it only to those who put their heart and soul into their work. Stefano knew that gelato was also an art form, and that only those who put their heart and soul into their work could convey that magic in every cup or cone.
