SWEET DELIGHTS - the kings of cream If, during one of those
unforgettable visits to Italy, you found yourself walking the sidewalks scooping
remarkably flavorful, creamy gelato into your mouth before it melted, you know
it's not merely ice cream. It's been a culinary badge of honor for Italians since
the 17th century, and the country is a breeding ground for superior gelato. While
you're stateside, though, don't despair - these covetable domestic options won't
let you down.

DOLCE BECOMES OFFICIAL FROZEN DESSERT OF THE NEW ENGLAND
PATRIOTS
Partnership agreement with Kraft Sports Group aligns Roba Dolce,
America’s most authentic gelato and sorbetto® with one of
the strongest brands in sports.
Roba Dolce and the Kraft Sports Group recently announced
a partnership agreement that makes Roba Dolce the “official frozen desert
of the New England Patriots.”
The agreement gives Roba Dolce, a leading producer of authentic premium Italian gelato and sorbetto, the rights to use team marks as part of a new Patriots product line coming to retail this spring. Roba Dolce will also benefit from sales of their product at Gillette Stadium, where old-fashioned serving carts are located in the concourses.
“We are thrilled to partner with such a world class organization,” said Roba Dolce CEO Matthew Olerio. “Just five years ago, we began producing and packaging our gelato to a handful of local supermarkets in RI. Today we produce distribute to over 7,000 stores nationwide. Partnering with the Patriots creates an enormous opportunity to build strong brand identity, not only in New England, but throughout the United States. We are looking forward to a long-term relationship and to being part of the success we know the Patriots will continue to achieve.”
The New England Patriots are one of the most recognizable brands in all of sports, having won more regular season games, playoff games, division titles, conference titles and Super Bowls than any other NFL franchise over the last decade. Also among the Kraft Sports Group’s properties is Gillette Stadium, New England’s premier sports, concert and special event venue.
“Roba Dolce is a best-in-class company,” said Murray Kohl, Patriots vice president of sales. “We are proud to align with a high-quality brand and local company like Roba Dolce.”
