GELATO MASSIMO, INC.



NOT AFFECTED BY CALIFORNIA PISTACHIO SALMONELLA CONTAMINATION



GELATO MASSIMO would like to reassure all our customers that the recent scare over the safety of ingesting pistachios is not linked to any GELATO MASSIMO products.  Most of GELATO MASSIMO products, including pistachio flavorings, are sourced directly from Italy, not California.

In addition, all GELATO MASSIMO ingredients undergo required testing and analysis before they are distributed to assure their safety.

It is safe to serve and ingest GELATO MASSIMO’s pistachio flavorings and products despite recent warnings in the media. If you have any questions, concerns and/or require further documentation, please feel free to contact us at 866-977-3435.
