I Scream Gelato Breckenridge, CO

Gelato is unparalleled to ice cream, and here at I Scream Gelato, contrary to popular opinion – we are not an ice cream shop. Our unique flavors of gelato, good selection of decadent desserts, and excellent espresso – set us apart from any ice cream shop – and also just the sheer fact we don’t serve ice cream.

About I Scream Gelato Breckenridge

I Scream Gelato Breckenridge began as a passion project and has turned into a passion that can connect people over Gelato. Gelato was created in Italy – it is an Italian dessert often enjoyed overseas and throughout Europe. Ice cream and ice cream shops are all over Colorado, and while the overall concept is similar, the dessert itself is very different. There is no way to juxtapose the two treats.

Fresh Ingredients Procured From Italy

I Scream Gelato Breckenridge sources our gelato ingredients straight from Italy – each scoop dips into all the layers and assortment of pieces that went into its creation so it can be served fresh to you! Our menu offers various flavors inspired by the atmosphere and people of Colorado. I Scream was established in Breckenridge, our home, for a good reason.

Breckenridge, Colorado, is a great place for trying new things, eating good food, and indulging in sweet treats! Main Street is the epicenter of Breckenridge. (We realize some people would argue it is Isak Heartstone, the resident troll, but the verdict is still out…) We are located a few doors down from Mountain Top Cookie Shop.

The Breckenridge Inspiration

The people of Breckenridge have genuinely inspired the flavor and toppings we provide in-store. We want to encapsulate that magical feeling you have in Colorado or downtown Breckenridge. While it can be challenging to churn that up and turn it into gelato, espresso, or affogatos, for that matter – we have done it!

Here at I Scream Gelato, we aim to provide good food, a fun atmosphere, and an assortment of desserts you can post on Instagram. Our presentation is something we pride ourselves on, and if you take one look at our gelato display – you will want to post a picture.

Our Menu

I Scream is gelato with a tasty twist. Our menu is distinguished with an array of flavors, toppings, and options for anyone who wants through our doors. The possibilities are endless! The atmosphere and seating are based on inclusion. The seating is designed to connect people from all layers of society. We want people to sit down and connect with their kids or even a stranger over our gelato. Our vision was to take our customers to Italy with their tastebuds while providing a sense of nostalgia and friendly service. Our doors are open and screaming for you to come in for a cold treat.

Gelato Vs. Ice Cream

So what is the distinction between ice cream and gelato, you ask?

  • Gelato is made with less eggs, cream, and more milk.
  • While gelato utilizes more milk, it is slowly churned to avoid air getting into the mix, while ice cream makers tend to fill the product with air to increase the volume of each batch (the less air in the mix, the more flavor).
  • Gelato never uses egg yolk and is stored at a higher temperature giving you that “melts in your mouth” experience.
  • Gelato is kept at cool temperatures but not freezing temperatures.

Not all sweet frozen treats are created equally!

Here's The Scoop

I Scream Gelato offers hot or cold iced coffee and various beverages, including Italian affogatos, espresso, and hot chocolate. Our menu also features milkshakes and smoothies alongside our bakery goods. The milkshakes can be made with any kind of milk, and our smoothies are provided in 8 different flavors! A milkshake made with gelato is unlike anything you have ever experienced – amazing!

There are so many dishes and options to choose from, so if you cannot decide, try a free sample of all the flavors and toppings we offer. Similar to a cafe or restaurant experience, we want to ensure your dining experience is superior! Everything on our menu is fresh and crafted to perfection. The passion that started this project should be shared with others; that is precisely what we are doing here at I Scream.

The kids absolutely love I scream Gelato in Breckenridge. My family comes to Breckenridge every year to visit family, and one of our favorite things to do is visit all of the local ice cream shops as well as other eateries. If you are in Breckenridge and have not tried this particular ice cream shop, I can say that I'd highly recommend a visit.
