Great mousse

I tried their pistachio gelato and it was good, but the mousse was extraordinary. Sweet but no too sweet and the texture… out of this world

Dolcetti crudisti da degustare

Caffè molto carino con vista sulla piazza. I dolcetti sono tutti vegan e crudisti, quindi diversi dal solito. Ci sono piaciuti tutto, soprattutto la monoporzione al pistacchio e caramello! Prezzi medio alti (noi abbiamo speso 10€ a testa per cappuccino e qualche dolcetto)

Truly insane, the attention to details, flavour

You know once you walk in, it's probably going to be the best sweet treat you've ever had.

Great selection, presentation, ingredients, service and taste.

I sat upstairs where they charge extra for table service but it's worth it

Delicious hot chocolate pistachio

Amazing hot chocolate. The pistachio taste was delicious.
However cookies were good, nothing exceptional, and it was quite disappointing that at 3 pm they were out of basically all the creamy icecream flavors

Incredible pastries

The place offers a large selection of fine pastries. Making a choice was very difficult!
I had a caramel and pistachio tartelette, which was absolutely incredible ! I will for sure visit again if coming back to Firenze

great if you like raw desserts

this cafe is cute and classy, with a nice place to sit outside and overlook the square (although through bars…)
be warned, the place is not cheap, especially for the desserts but they are very well made and tasty.
the coffee was not for me unfortunately, very watery almond milk with a splash of coffee, and too sweet too. love what they’re doing there though and the staff are friendly and helpful also.

Sweet tooth, you need to go !

I felt adventurous because usually I don't really like raw desserts, but this place was so good !

Just outside the Novecento Museum, you will find vegan ice cream and desserts that are absolutely worth the try.

The pistachio ice cream had a REALLY great taste of pistachio, that was perfect !

Pros: Made me like raw desserts, Pistachio ice cream with a REAL taste of pistachio

Rude man working there

I went here two times. First I paid 3€ for water that comes out of a tap and 6€ for a very small tiramisu. The cost of a cappuccino is 4€ on the menu which normally costs about €1.50. The cappuccino is as small and one of the worst I’ve had in Italy. There were many people coming in the borrow the restroom and the girls were very sweet saying it’s fine to borrow their toilet. I came back the next day having to pee very badly and the man working there came and told me I can’t borrow the toilet and I said the day before the girls said it was fine and he said “no it’s not fine”

really good

The pistachio ensemble was absolutely incredible, and knowing that it didn't contain refined sugar made it even better. Also really liked the dessert in the glass, the cookies were not so much my thing. But overall really amazing desserts!

Amazing Vegan Cafe

Came across this place and was hesitant as raw vegan is not my thing and I have never really enjoyed anything raw vegan.

This place changed that. The options are amazing, ordered a sampling of everything and each item was incredible. Not a single miss. Nothing about their offerings seemed raw vegan at all.

If you are in Florence you need to stop here.

Perfection!

This was one of the best desserts I've had in my life, it's hard to even describe how excellent the flavour and how incredibly balanced it was. It is pricey but well worth it, if you're a fan of hazelnuts and chocolate the hazelnut chocolate mousse ball thingy😋

Pros: Amazing dessert , Amazing coffee
