La Gelati Expands to Milwaukee: Sweet News for Dessert Lovers

Milwaukee, we have some delicious news to share! La Gelati, the famous spot for creamy gelato, tasty crepes, and delightful specials, is officially opening in the heart of our city. Whether you’re a fan of traditional desserts or love trying something new, La Gelati’s arrival is sure to excite your taste buds.

Bringing a Middle Eastern Tradition Stateside

Let’s talk about what makes La Gelati so special. This isn’t just another dessert shop; it’s a slice of heritage served with every scoop. Founded in Dearborn Heights, Michigan, in 2017 by Hussein Saad, Zeinab Cherkaoui, and Yousef Khalaf, La Gelati became famous for its ashta—a hand-pulled Middle Eastern ice cream with a uniquely smooth texture.

“Ashta has been a tradition for centuries, originating in Syria,” explains Hussein. “It’s rare to find it in the U.S., which is why so many people travel far and wide just to try it. For many of our customers, it’s a taste of home.”

But they didn’t stop there. La Gelati expanded its menu to include crepes, waffles, boba tea, and even creative concoctions like Red Bull Boba. It’s this mix of tradition and innovation that’s won them a loyal following—and now, they’re bringing their magic to Milwaukee.

A New Gathering Place for Milwaukee

The new La Gelati is more than just a dessert shop—it’s designed to be a welcoming space where people can connect, unwind, and indulge. Located downtown, the shop features cozy seating, a vibrant atmosphere, and that warm, friendly service the brand is known for.

“Our goal has always been to create a place where everyone feels at home,” says Hussein. “Milwaukee has such a strong sense of community, and we can’t wait to become part of it.”

Grand Opening Festivities

Mark your calendars because the grand opening is going to be a celebration you won’t want to miss! On [Date], La Gelati is rolling out the red carpet with:

• Free Gelato: The first 100 guests get a free small gelato.
