A croissant is a French pastry made from puff pastry in a crescent shape. It is a buttery, flaky, viennoiserie pastry inspired by the shape of the Austrian kipferl, but using the French yeast-leavened laminated dough. Croissants are named for their historical crescent shape, but Mina Gelato server Croissants with Italian style.
Found in 2010 by Chef Mr Antonio (Tuan Nguyen) in Hanoi, Vietnam. Chef Antonio have been trained by Italian Gelato Chefs in Italy and Greece with various gelato recipes over the world.
Founder chef Chea Hour had a dream: to create superb, fresh, delicious gelato for all to enjoy – handmade with love from the world’s finest ingredients.
In 2023 that dream came true with Mina Gelato.
Mina Gelato is the leading premium artisan gelato brand, renowned for its exceptional quality and taste. With a strong presence in Cambodia.
Gelato is the common word in Italian for all types of ice cream. In English, it specifically refers to a frozen dessert of Italian origin. Artisanal gelato in Italy generally contains 6–9% butterfat, which is lower than other styles of frozen dessert. Gelato typically contains 35% air (substantially less than American-style ice cream) and more flavoring than other types of frozen desserts, giving it a density and richness that distinguishes it from other ice creams.
In Italy, gelato means simply 'frozen' and is the generic word for any type or style of ice cream. In English, however, the term has come to be used to refer to a specific style of ice cream derived from the Italian artisanal tradition.
Our products are praised for their use of high-quality raw materials and authentic Italian recipes, preserved for over years, ensuring an all-natural experience free from preservatives. Our franchisees enjoy continuous support and training at every stage of their business journey, promoting their success.
Innovation drives us, as we constantly expand our portfolio with new products and flavors, redefining the gelato experience for everyone.
Anyone familiar with Mina Gelato knows that our gelato and cafe is unrivaled because we make it with simple, fresh ingredients like Organic milk and fresh fruit. We have been making gelato and cafe since 2023 and control every step of the process from making the base mix at our production facility to finishing the gelato on site at each gelato shop to ensure the highest quality. We carefully select the best Italian ingredients and don’t use any artificial colorings, flavorings or preservatives in our gelatos and sorbets. This is what sets us apart from other ice cream and gelato shops.
Mina Gelato is not the simplest or least expensive in the frozen-dessert space, but the taste of our gelato and the joy it brings our guests, makes the effort worthwhile.
