A True Taste of Italy Arrives in the 203
Oggi Gelato isn’t just another dessert shop—it’s the real deal. Founded in Italy and recognized globally for its quality, Oggi creates small‑batch gelato using traditional Italian methods, premium ingredients, and a slow‑churn process that gives every scoop its signature creamy texture. Their flavors range from classics like pistachio, hazelnut & tiramisu to seasonal creations and fruit‑forward sorbets. If you’ve ever wondered what gelato tastes like in Rome or Florence, this is as close as it gets without a passport.
The Ricci Brothers Expands Their Local Legacy
The opening is part of the Ricci brothers’ continued growth across Fairfield County. Known for their cafés, pizzerias, and restaurants, they’ve built a reputation for bringing authentic Italian flavors to Connecticut. Adding Oggi Gelato to their lineup is a natural next step—one that brings even more variety and vibrancy to the Long Hill Market plaza. With their commitment to quality and community, this partnership is a perfect match.
A Social Media Tease That Has Trumbull Talking
Oggi Gelato has already teased the opening on social media, and the hype is real. Their “Trumbull, are you ready?” video has been making the rounds, giving locals a sneak peek at what’s coming. Between the brand’s global reputation and the family name behind the new shop, excitement is building fast.
A Growing International Brand Choosing Connecticut as Home Base
Oggi Gelato’s expansion into Trumbull is part of a larger U.S. growth strategy, and Connecticut continues to be at the center of it. With multiple locations already thriving here, the state has become a key market for the brand. Trumbull’s addition reinforces that Fairfield County is becoming a hotspot for high‑quality, globally recognized food concepts.
A New Go‑To Spot for Families, Date Nights, and Summer Treats
Whether you’re grabbing dessert after dinner, treating the kids, or stopping by for a mid‑day pick‑me‑up, Oggi Gelato is poised to become a neighborhood favorite. Its location in the revitalized Long Hill Market makes it easy to swing by, and the shop’s bright, modern vibe is perfect for hanging out with friends or enjoying a quiet moment with a cone.
