About pumpujdt

Crafting exceptional gelato and ice cream with passion since our founding

Our Story

pumpujdt was born from a deep passion for authentic Italian gelato and a commitment to bringing the finest frozen treats to Rotterdam. Our journey began with a simple belief: that exceptional ice cream and gelato should be made with the highest quality ingredients, traditional techniques, and genuine care.

Located in the heart of Rotterdam on Vijverweg, we've established ourselves as a destination for discerning ice cream lovers who appreciate the difference that quality makes. Every day, our artisans craft small batches of gelato and ice cream using time-honoured methods passed down through generations.

What sets pumpujdt apart is our unwavering commitment to excellence. From sourcing the finest Sicilian pistachios to using real Madagascar vanilla beans, every ingredient is carefully selected to ensure an exceptional taste experience that transports you straight to the gelaterias of Italy.

Traditional gelato making process

Traditional Craftsmanship

At pumpujdt, we honour the traditional art of gelato making. Our process begins early each morning as our skilled artisans prepare fresh batches using authentic Italian techniques that have been perfected over centuries.

Unlike mass-produced ice cream, our gelato is churned slowly at a lower temperature, creating a denser, more intense flavour profile with a silky smooth texture. This traditional method allows the true taste of our premium ingredients to shine through in every spoonful.

From the careful balance of ingredients to the precise temperature control during the churning process, every step is executed with meticulous attention to detail. This commitment to traditional craftsmanship is what makes pumpujdt gelato truly exceptional.
