Explanation

Gelato is the Italian frozen dessert that has less milk fat (4-8%) than ice cream (10% or more) and typically does not contain egg yolks. Sorbet is fruit-based and contains no dairy, while sherbet contains a small amount of dairy. Gelato's lower fat content and denser texture distinguish it from ice cream.
