The Unique Concept

The Mad Italian Gelato Bar and Cafe Italiano has a unique concept and spin on Italian food. Our menu consists of old Italian classics like our 42-flavour Gelato bar and newer options like our newly famous Zazzu Hot Cones, as well as a multitude of classic salads, soups, exotic desserts and pastries, cold treats, coffee, tea, and specialty beverages. Each location is open 7 days a week and is now serving a full lunch and dinner menu with an authentic Italian atmosphere and experience.

The Industry

A number of new players are entering the growing cold snack industry, especially in the gelato segment. This trend stems mainly from Italian communities, and people around the world now enjoy gelato.

In 2009 the artisanal ice cream market in Canada was worth $234 million and it’s growing each year.

The Mad Italian is offering to waive royalties,(ZERO ROYALTIES FOR MOST OF THE YEAR!) and is looking to aggressively expand in other Ontario communities, specifically, Guleph, Vaughen, Ajax, and Downtown Toronto.
