Montebianco is inspired by the highest peak in Europe and was created with the ambition to exceed its limits, always setting the bar for every objective that little bit higher.
A company that considers tradition a strength and so strives to protect, cultivate and develop the master skills that lie behind artisan ice-cream, one of the specialities that makes Italy unique worldwide.
Montebianco works hard to offer ice-cream parlours and pastry shops the very best ingredients for making perfect artisan ice-cream. It combines selected high quality ingredients with the constant search for increasingly innovative solutions, in terms of good health and wellness, but also creativity.
Emotions are undoubtedly the main characteristic of the history of Montebianco. Each stage is a milestone reached, and each milestone is in turn the most effective driving force in our never-ending pursuit of a new objective.
The label of New Age Mix, a stabiliser and emulsifier-free base, lists Skimmed Milk as its top ingredient and no "E" numbers. All this, combined with the ease with which it can be used, makes New Age Mix an essential ingredient for an exceptional quality ice-cream.
Black Emotion is an extremely elegant proposal created for the trendiest ice-cream shops: not just a flavour, but a "transformer" product that lends itself to a dozen different uses, maximising the ice-cream maker's efficiency and profit.
The Audace base and Tenace sorbet syrup are created, two products that are easy to use and ensure great results in terms of taste and stability in the display counter.

Montebianco presents the new "gourmet" range: toppings that respect the canons of fine pastry-making, characterised by the use of excellent raw materials and the clever mix recommended by the Gurus of White Room. The new line is launched to the cry of "No kit, be free!", encouraging the ice-cream maker to let his creativity and artisan skill run wild.
To celebrate the long history of the brand, three new products are created, complementing the existing range: StabilMix 50° Anniversario, StabilLatte and StabilCream, products that launch the Life Trail philosophy, the mark that guarantees a transparent Food Policy to its customers and consumers. The new products are 100% GMO-free, Gluten-free and contain no artificial flavours!
