GUSTO ETNA Sweet Pistachio Butter Cream spread — 35% pistachios, 6.6 lb (3 kg) tub, velvety texture

GUSTO ETNA Sweet Pistachio Butter Cream is a smooth, rich pistachio spread made with 35% pistachios in a 6.6 lb (3 kg) tub for professional kitchens and home bakers.

Made in Italy and formulated for pastry chefs, cafés and serious home cooks, this pistachio butter combines a pronounced nutty aroma with a spreadable, velvety texture. The 35% pistachio content gives a genuine green-hued pistachio profile that stands up in fillings, frostings, gelato, and confectionery. Packaged in a large, resealable tub, it’s aimed at frequent use where consistent flavor and texture matter.

How does this pistachio butter perform in pastries and confections?

It integrates smoothly into creams, mousses, ganaches and buttercreams, delivering a clean nut-forward taste without graininess. Its fat content and emulsification make it stable when folded into batters or heated gently. Bakers appreciate that it keeps color and flavor after baking and when mixed with sugar and dairy.

• Blendable with butter, mascarpone, or cream for fillings and icings
• Stable texture for pastry creams and custards
• Maintains pistachio color and aroma after baking
• Large tub reduces repackaging and waste in busy kitchens

Can I use this product in gelato and ice cream?

Yes — its smooth, buttery consistency and real pistachio content make it ideal for gelato and ice cream bases. It disperses evenly in pasteurized mixes and adds richness without icy texture. Use it as a base flavor or a swirl for premium frozen desserts.

• Dissolves evenly into warm or cold bases
• Adds natural pistachio color and aroma to frozen desserts
• Improves mouthfeel and creaminess in gelato
• Works well for ripple or chunk inclusions

How should I store and handle the 3 kg tub for best results?

Keep the tub sealed and refrigerated after opening to preserve freshness and prevent oil separation. If the paste firms in cold temperatures, allow it to rest at room temperature before stirring; gentle warming in a bain-marie or short microwave bursts (stirring between heats) will restore spreadability. Use clean utensils to avoid contamination when dipping from the tub.

• Refrigerate after opening and reseal lid tightly
• Bring to room temperature or warm briefly for easier use
• Stir before use if natural oil separation appears
• Use sanitary scoops to maintain shelf life
