About Talenti

Talenti makes gelato and sorbetto sold in clear plastic jars rather than tubs, a packaging choice that let shoppers see the product and became its most recognisable feature. Founded in 2003, it was acquired by Unilever in 2014 and moved to The Magnum Ice Cream Company in the 2025 demerger.
