Carabè Gelateria

A Taste of Sicily in Florence

Welcome to Carabè, the artisan gelato shop in Florence where Sicilian tradition meets a passion for natural ingredients and the pursuit of perfect flavour. For years it has been a point of reference for those seeking authentic gelato, prepared daily using traditional methods and carefully selected raw materials.

Carabè was founded with the desire to bring the essence of true Sicilian gelato to Florence: time-honoured recipes, slow processing methods, and fresh ingredients sourced from small producers and exceptional farms. Every specialty tells a story of territory, tradition, and quality.

The range of flavours includes timeless classics—such as pistachio, hazelnut, chocolate, and custard—alongside fresh fruit sorbets made without milk, perfect for those who prefer lighter tastes.

The artisanal preparation, free from ready-made bases and artificial additives, preserves the richness of the ingredients and ensures a creamy, natural gelato with intense flavour.

But Carabè is more than just gelato…

Here you can also enjoy authentic Sicilian granita, made with fresh fruit, water, and sugar. From lemon to almond, from coffee to strawberry, each granita is a journey through the scents of the island. You’ll also find brioche, sorbets, semifreddi, and artisanal desserts—ideal for a delicious break at any time of day.

Located just steps from the historic centre, the gelateria offers a welcoming, bright, and colourful environment, where the aroma of fresh fruit and the friendly smiles of the staff accompany every visit.
