Revolution Gelato shook up the stagnant frozen pie category when it introduced its seasonal Turtle and Seasonal Pumpkin gelato pie flavors for the fall. The first-to-market Turtle Gelato Pie and Seasonal Pumpkin Gelato Pie flavors are decadent plant-based desserts that offer a fun way for families to celebrate without dairy. As founder Jared Olkin says, "We recognized a gap in the market for clean-ingredient, plant-based, shareable frozen desserts. Nobody else is doing this."
With a vegan graham cracker crust and a creamy plant-based gelato interior filling, these plant-based desserts reinvent seasonal staples that promise to be enjoyed at the Thanksgiving table and beyond.
Revolution Gelato's Plant-Based Pumpkin Pie Gelato took home the title of Best New Sweet or Dessert in the NEXTY Awards at the 2022 Natural Products Expo East.
