Why Glyk?
"Glyk" means happiness in Yiddish, reflecting our mission to spread joy through our artisanal gelato. Our Boca Raton kosher gelato parlor was brought to life by our Founder and Maestro, Jaime, who chose the name to encapsulate the essence of this unique word. Through something as simple as Italian ice cream, we hope to make both our community and the world a happier, better place, and hope you’ll come try our handcrafted gelato yourself to taste what happiness means to us.
How Glyk Kosher Gelato is Made
Glyk kosher ice cream in Boca is handcrafted daily in small batches by local artisans in our South Florida parlor. Each recipe uses all-natural ingredients, and is meticulously developed from scratch by Maestro Jaime, ensuring every flavor tastes true to its name, scoops easily, and feels velvety smooth on the palate. This artisanal approach allows us to create any flavor we can imagine! It also allows us to provide our customers with kosher and pareve ice cream near Coral Springs that is a true delight in every single spoonful.
We use traditional Italian methods to create our own recipes and follow original techniques to craft our dairy and non-dairy gelato in West Boca to help ensure a perfectly rich smooth and creamy finish. All our ingredients are kosher and our facility is kosher certified by the ORB.
Our Story
About 10 years ago, Maestro Jaime embarked on a journey to Calabria, Italy, to learn the art of making authentic Italian artisanal gelato. Under the guidance of a local maestro, he was taken to a market and asked to choose any product to transform into gelato. Jaime chose sweet corn, a flavor reminiscent of his Mexican heritage. (Yes! Italian-style gelato made by Mexican Jews.) Upon returning home, he began crafting our now-signature flavor in his kitchen. Our first gelato machine is still proudly displayed in our store.

"Best gelato I’ve ever had. I always want to come back here. We recommended it to everyone we know. Best place ever. Beautiful environment too. The best gelato is definitely the Nutella and mint chocolate chip by far. The mint chocolate chip has literally bits of mint leaves. I love it so much."
