Aurelia – Elevating Gelato with Asian Dessert Traditions in Midtown NYC
Aurelia is a one-of-a-kind gelato and sorbetto brand located in the bustling heart of Midtown Manhattan, New York City. We specialize in fusing authentic Asian flavors with the time-honored techniques of Italian gelato making, creating a truly unique dessert experience that resonates with both gelato lovers and fans of Asian desserts alike.
Our approach to gelato is grounded in the principle of quality and authenticity. Every flavor is crafted using only fresh, whole, and all-natural ingredients sourced from top-tier suppliers such as Blue Bottle Coffee and ROYCE’ Chocolate. This commitment to purity ensures that each bite bursts with the true essence of the ingredients, setting Aurelia apart from typical ice cream shops or gelato places.
The flavor profile at Aurelia celebrates the rich and diverse dessert cultures of Asia. Japanese desserts like matcha and hojicha are staples on our menu, beloved for their earthy, robust taste profiles. Matcha, made from finely ground green tea leaves, provides a vibrant and slightly bitter flavor that balances perfectly with the creamy texture of our gelato. Hojicha, a roasted green tea, offers a warm, smoky note that creates a comforting and nuanced frozen treat.
Beyond Japan, our Korean dessert-inspired flavors such as Korean Pear offer a crisp, refreshing twist that’s both fruity and subtly sweet, capturing the delicate flavors popular in Korean cuisine. Chinese influences are reflected in our White Rabbit gelato, which takes inspiration from the iconic candy beloved across generations. We also feature exotic fruits like Red Dragonfruit that add vibrant color and tropical zest to our lineup.
For those who prefer dairy-free or vegan options, Aurelia’s sorbettos are crafted to delight with their light and refreshing profiles. Flavors such as Thai Iced Tea and Vietnamese Iced Coffee sorbettos evoke the rich, sweet flavors of Southeast Asian street drinks, transformed into a cool, dairy-free delight perfect for warmer days or those with dietary restrictions.
Aurelia’s location at 255 W 43rd St offers convenient access to Midtown workers, tourists, and residents seeking high-quality desserts. Our extended store hours accommodate a wide range of schedules, with early openings on weekdays and late nights on Fridays and Saturdays, ensuring you can enjoy our gelato and sorbetto whenever the craving strikes.
Our brand goes beyond just a storefront. We collaborate with an array of Asian restaurants, cafes, and bakeries across NYC, supplying our premium gelato to complement their culinary offerings and enhance the local Asian dessert scene. Additionally, we provide tailored catering services for private and corporate events, delivering a memorable sweet experience that highlights authentic Asian flavors fused with Italian gelato tradition.
Aurelia stands as a beacon of innovation and authenticity in the crowded NYC dessert market. Whether you are seeking the creamy richness of matcha gelato, the smoky allure of hojicha, or the fruity freshness of Korean Pear sorbetto, Aurelia delivers a sophisticated and genuine taste of Asia in every scoop.
