# Gelato 33
Gelato 33 is a numbered selection within the Gelato group, recognized for dessert sweetness with citrus and floral accents depending on the cut. Numbered Gelato phenos help growers and retailers talk about variation inside one famous Cookies-family project instead of treating every Gelato jar as identical.
Upstream, Gelato is commonly reported as Sunset Sherbet × Thin Mint GSC, themselves downstream of GSC and the OG × Durban Cookies story. Records conflict when seed lines sell Gelato 33 without clone verification; prefer cut-documented material when comparing gardens or menus.
Why Gelato 33 mattered: phenotype numbering educated consumers that dessert royalty comes in multiple expressions, and it kept Gelato central as Runtz-era candy breeding took off. Live relatives include [Gelato](/strain/gelato), [Runtz](/strain/runtz), [White Runtz](/strain/white-runtz), [Thin Mint GSC](/strain/thin-mint-gsc), and [GSC](/strain/gsc).
Terpene names often mentioned include [Caryophyllene](/terpene/Caryophyllene), [Limonene](/terpene/Limonene), [Linalool](/terpene/Linalool), [Myrcene](/terpene/Myrcene), and [Humulene](/terpene/Humulene). No invented lab percentages. Navigate siblings via the Cookies family page.
Love The Plant keeps this entry educational: origin notes, published parent models, why the line mattered historically, linked relatives on the live strain list, and terpene names for aroma literacy. No medical claims, no invented lab percentages, and no forced pedigree where sources disagree—Unknown remains a valid and preferred label.
Read linked family and terpene pages for aroma vocabulary and member lists. When two reputable tellings disagree on parents, this library includes a conflict note and refuses to invent lab figures or medical claims for any cut.
