CHOCOLATE AMORE Gelato 🍫🥃

Inspired by a little family bakery tucked away in an alley in Milan, Italy 🇮🇹

During one of Jasmine’s trip to Italy before starting SweetCup- she recalled having the most delicious Amaretto chocolate cookies—rich, chocolatey, with an almond-like sweetness. (2nd photo Jasmine in Milan outside the bakery alleyway).

So she brought it home to SweetCup.

Our Chocolate Amore combines rich dark chocolate gelato with Lazzaroni Amaretto, an iconic Italian almond-flavored liqueur from Saronno. Amaretto liqueur has a long rooted history in Saronno, Italy outside the city of Milan.

A little taste of Milan. A little Italian amore. 🇮🇹🍫❤️

Available now at SweetCup Montrose 📍

Cranberry Almond Ginger Cookie is back for fall 🍁

We start with creamy almond, tart cranberry and warm ginger for that extra layer of texture and spice.

It’s the kind of fall flavor that doesn’t need pumpkin to make an entrance.

Back for the season at the Montrose location📍

Coming soon to Cypress 🍨

Houston may still be serving us 90° days, but our customers said, “We’re ready for pumpkin.” 🎃 🫶🏼
So... we listened.🫡

Pumpkin Swirl Cheesecake Cake Gelato is back for the season - creamy cheesecake cake gelato layered with pumpkin, cinnamon, cloves, and all those warm spices that somehow make you believe fall is actually happening outside. 🍁🍂

Is it September in Houston? Yes.
Does it feel like fall? Absolutely not.

Are we eating pumpkin anyway? 100%.

Back by popular demand - and now waiting for you in the case at both locations SweetCup 📍

Come by SweetCup, and get your pumpkin fix before it disappears for the season 🎃🍨

Thank you for your patience and understanding.❤️

Hazelnut Guava Gelato 🌰💗
A little Italian, a little tropical, and very SweetCup 😊🍨

We’re using Piedmont hazelnuts from Italy, a region especially known for its prized Tonda Gentile hazelnuts, particularly around the Langhe, Roero, and Monferrato areas.

They’re rich, roasty and beautifully nutty.
We paired them with guava fruit sweetened with jaggery, which brings in this bright, fruity note that cuts through the richness of the hazelnut.

Definitely an interesting combination and delicious.

Available at the Montrose location 📍
