Gelato. A love story

Meet the Goatys

Two crazy kids who really love gelato! Mr Goaty was inspired by Dan and Julia’s childhood and travel adventures. Dan grew up in rural England and Greece, and Julia in Bondi Beach. After meeting in France where Dan was a private chef and Julia a hungry traveller, they moved across Europe and the UK before settling in sunny Sydney.

The first batches of Mr Goaty Gelato were churned in Dan and Julia’s tiny home kitchen in Bronte Beach. In between working long nights as a chef at the Three Blue Ducks and running around after baby Dylan, Dan perfected Mr Goaty’s signature flavours, testing them out on family and friends (they didn’t mind).

A few months on, in the midst of a Sydney “winter”, the first scoops of Mr Goaty Gelato were sold at Bondi Markets. In 2016 seeking greener pastures and less crowded surf breaks the Goatys moved to the Central Coast and never looked back. Mr Goaty Gelato is now a proud Coastie product, made with locally-sourced ingredients. Find us at local markets and events, or hire our Gelato Bikes for weddings, parties and events across Sydney, Newcastle, the Hunter and beyond!

 
 

Being a chef I have to use only the best fresh and seasonal produce. So we make our own caramels and sauces, and pull as many ingredients as we can from the ground.
