One of the best ice creams in Florence, they carry the banner of Sicily with their heads held high!
Yummy pastries and great cakes!
I also recommend the salty, to try because it is different from the usual flatbread!

Small but nice place, limited seating. Personally, for reasons of time, I tasted very little, but I would like to promote it with flying colors: the Neapolitan curly puff pastry and the orange granita were excellent.

It was really a long time that I wanted to try the ice cream and especially the brioche col tuppo with ice cream here, given the typical Sicilian production ... especially considering the many reviews read about it and the opinions given by people who had been there.
Only once did I happen to pass it, but, being out of season it didn't have great choices so reluctantly I promised myself to try again ... after many years, here I am.
Well the wait was not ignored, on the contrary ... super brioche with tuppo with very good ice cream (always faithful to dark chocolate, coffee and pistachio) !!!
A must try if you happen to be in the Fortezza / Piazza Indipendenza area!

One of the best Sicilian pastry and ice cream experiences in Florence, the quality is obviously not like that of the ice cream parlors and pastry shops that are in Sicily but this is inevitable as indeed in Sicily there is no restaurant capable of making a Fiorentina steak like they can do here in Florence.

In my opinion one of the best ice creams in Florence, if not perhaps the best ever. Pistachio, Greek yogurt, and salted caramel are great. If it were somewhere I pass by more often, I would go there regularly.

An unmissable place !!! Ask for the real Sicilian cannoli. Even if not displayed, it will be immediately prepared very fresh. And don't miss the marzipan products. All exquisite, plus the normal services offered as a bar. Kindness and friendliness

Very good Sicilian pastry. Croissants excellent, filled at the time with their creams. The arancini are also good. Prices a tad high: a croissant with cream costa1.20, cream and amarena 1.30, but they deserve them. I have not tasted their ice cream and various cakes they produce that look very inviting. Coffee could be improved. Small but nice environment. Very friendly staff.

Almonds, cassata, citrus fruits, pistachio, cinnamon, granita, brioche, cannoli ... stop me !!!
I enter this ice cream shop and I want to take up residence there!
while I look at the trays with ice cream flavors the ice cream maker looks at me and smiles. - I'm too undecided, I still don't know whether to take ice cream or granita -
- you can do half and half - she says.
- are you serious? -
- of course! I'll put you half a glass of granita and half a gel ... -
- I want almond granita !!! - I interrupt her before she can change her mind.
I ask for advice on which flavor of ice cream to put on the almond granita and we decide that "orange with cinnamon" is his death.
mystical experience.
I don't know what else to add.
I love this ice cream shop and I love the flavors of Sicily!

Local not very big but well-stocked with every delicacy, exceptional granite 3 or 5 with a wonderful variety of tastes, from fishing to berries.
Note of thanks also to the cannoli, available in two sizes smaller or larger 3.5 1.5 with pistachio stuffing or classic ricotta as well as other varieties.
Really really good.
Friendly staff.
To try.

I ordered latte macchiato and two croissants, the store clerk (lady with ponytail) is kind to all customers and very efficient at doing everything.
I suggest the boss should raise her hourly rate
The price is really good in this area, I ca n t tell you if food is good here, because everyone has different taste.
But this is the last place I would like to come before I leave Firenze.
Where the ice drink in Florence is about + 50cent,
I can only say that a cup of latte macchiato around 1.5 is really a Buddha heart price
Food is bread dessert ice cream
Personally think the C / P value is high
There are cool female shop assistants, people feel good, I like it
