The Gelato Lab

The Gelato Lab is a family-owned gelato shop born from the belief that Round Rock deserved authentic, handcrafted gelato, not a chain's version or a premade base poured into a machine. Every flavor starts from scratch in their Round Rock kitchen using slow-churning techniques perfected in Italy over centuries, which produces less air, more density, and more flavor in every scoop. They source chocolate from the Ecuadorian Rainforest, pistachio paste from specialty producers (no artificial flavoring), and dairy-free sorbettos from real fruit, never concentrate. With over 24 rotating flavors including classics like Stracciatella, Tiramisu, Rainforest Chocolate, and seasonal creations, they offer something different from chain shops. Signature dairy-free flavors like Maracumango (passion fruit and mango) deliver real fruit flavor for vegan and dairy-conscious guests. Beyond gelato, they hand-craft desserts including cheesecakes, tiramisu, Belgian waffles, and Dubai chocolate strawberries. The shop hosts private birthday parties, corporate events, and team celebrations, plus offers delivery through DoorDash and Uber Eats. Located behind the Clay Madsen Recreation Center, they're part of the Round Rock community.
