Siddis Gelato, located in Stavanger, is a gelato shop founded by Jolanta Ulys during the global pandemic. It stands out for its commitment to fostering a local gelato culture through education and innovative flavors that merge Norwegian traditions with new tastes. Jolanta’s approach includes hands-on gelato-making classes, workshops, and tastings to deepen the community’s understanding and appreciation of gelato. The shop prioritises local produce and ethical sourcing for ingredients that are not available locally, like vanilla from Madagascar and pistachios from Sicily. Siddis Gelato also emphasises sustainability with zero-waste production and biodegradable packaging. Community engagement is central to their philosophy, with collaborations and events strengthening local ties. Looking forward, Siddis Gelato aims to expand its educational outreach and introduce more global flavors, while upholding the values of quality, tradition, and innovation.
