Why it's worth checking out
Gelatissimo Bulimba is a dessert stop on Oxford Street serving gelato made fresh in-store each day, with the brand describing its production as small-batch and based on traditional gelato-making techniques. The range combines familiar classics with more unusual flavours, alongside options made without dairy, reduced-sugar choices and vegan-friendly selections. The website also lists sorbet flavours and a broad collection of gelato, so there is plenty of scope to try something different on each visit.
For a celebration or a dessert to share, the Bulimba store offers gelato cakes for collection. Options listed online include Cookies & Cream, Italian Hazelnut, Decadent Cookie Dough and Choc Strawberry, with cakes designed to serve between six and 12 people. Customers can also design a cake using available in-store flavours, add toppings and include a personalised message. The store provides an allergy notice, noting that products are made on machinery that also processes gluten, egg, milk, peanuts, soy, tree nuts and sesame, so guests with allergies should check the details before ordering.
The Gelatissimo story began in Sydney in 2002, growing from its first King Street shop into a national brand with stores in more than 50 locations across Australia. Its stated approach centres on fresh ingredients, indulgent inclusions and ongoing flavour development, while the brand describes its stores as immersive spaces intended to make choosing a flavour part of the experience. At Bulimba, the website provides a direct local contact for cake orders and collection at 171 Oxford Street.
With individual gelato serves, dairy-free and vegan-friendly options, and cakes for groups, the store suits a casual family treat, a low-key catch-up or a solo stop for something sweet. Its range of flavours makes it a practical choice when different people want different desserts, while the custom cake service gives larger gatherings an option beyond a standard scoop.
