Talenti began in 2003 as a store-front gelateria in Dallas, Texas. Founder Josh Hochschuler based his recipe on a traditional Argentine gelato-making method. The gelateria was closed by 2005, and Hochschuler refocused the business as a maker of gelato for sale to restaurants, hotels and eventually grocery stores.

International foods conglomerate Unilever purchased the brand in 2014. In 2017, production was moved from Marietta, Georgia, to Unilever's central ice cream producing facility in Sikeston, Missouri.
