The festive season is filled with moments that deserve something truly special. A thoughtful Christmas thank you after a dinner party. An indulgent treat by the fire on a winter evening. A sophisticated finale to your Christmas feast. Enter Baboos: our award-winning chocolate-covered gelato and sorbet bonbons that transform any Christmas celebration into something extraordinary.
What Are Baboos?
Imagine twelve perfectly crafted bonbons, each one a bite-sized celebration of flavour. Our Baboos take the artisanal gelato and sorbet we're known for and enrobe them in luxurious dark Belgian chocolate. It's the perfect marriage of creamy, fruity, and rich—all in one elegant little package.
Each box of Baboos features four fabulous flavours that showcase the best of what we do:
Tropical Passionfruit Sorbet - A vibrant burst of exotic sunshine, tangy and refreshing
Autumnal Raspberry Sorbet - The essence of ripe berries, captured at their peak
Salted Caramel Gelato - Our most popular flavour and ultimate crowd-pleaser, with handmade caramel and Dorset Sea Salt
Exotic Coconut Gelato - Smooth and creamy with that distinctive tropical character
The Baboo Difference
Like all our gelato and sorbet, Baboos are made with real ingredients in small batches at our Lab in Rampisham, Dorset. We never cut corners. That means real fruit and the finest Belgian chocolate we can source. You'll taste the difference in every bite.
The dark chocolate shell provides that satisfying snap when you bite through, giving way to the smooth, intensely flavoured gelato or sorbet inside. It's a textural experience as much as a flavour one—and that's entirely intentional.
Unique Christmas Gifts for the Person Who Has Everything
As our founder Annie says, Baboos are "the perfect gift for the person who has it all." When you're stumped about what to buy someone who seems to have everything this Christmas, a box of artisan chocolate-covered gelato bonbons is both unexpected and utterly delightful.
They're also Annie's go-to choice as a Christmas dinner party thank you gift. "They're so much more thoughtful than showing up with the usual bottle of wine," she explains. "They're special, they're handmade, and they always spark conversation."
