Carabè: tradition becomes an emotion to be savored.

Artisanal ice cream and granitas since 1989

Since the beginning of the last century, a family of ice cream makers, the Lisciandro family, has lived in Messina. Antonio is the youngest member. So, in 1980, Antonio, from Sicily with love, arrived in Florence and opened Carabè, a temple of Sicilian ice cream whose motto is "quality without compromise."

Sicily in Tuscany with taste and tradition

Carabè has been a well-established and highly regarded Florence-based company specializing in artisanal gelato, granitas, and Sicilian cannoli for over thirty-five years. It was founded in 1989 by Antonio Lisciandro, a man of old, who decided to bring Sicily to the Tuscan capital, introducing the taste of authentic Sicilian granitas and quality gelato.


A few years later, Carabè expanded its capacity and vision with the creation of a large gelato production and training center in Terranuova Bracciolini. Parco Carabè was born, a place in the quiet hills of Valdarno, where you can savor and experience the quality of gelato, granitas, and cannoli.

The quality of raw materials

Everything produced is not just a product, but a cultural asset to be cared for through careful craftsmanship.



Extreme freshness, careful selection of raw materials, and personally supervised production: this is the formula that makes the dream come true.


Visual and then Olfactory Perception are anticipations of Gustatory Perception, which is why in an excellent product we must find the same characteristics of the raw material and enhance them.
