What It Is

Gelatomania is one of Taormina's long-standing artisanal gelaterias, active for decades at Corso Umberto 7, practically at the start of the Corso on the Porta Messina side. The gelato is made on-site in its own workshop with selected ingredients.

The flavours cover the classic Sicilian range — pistachio, almond, cannolo, cassata, lemon — plus seasonal and creative variants. Cones and cups, but also granita and brioche.

Why Go

• Artisanal gelato: made in-house, with a texture and flavour different from the industrial gelato you'll find elsewhere on the Corso
• Pistachio: the benchmark flavour for any Sicilian gelateria. Here it's made with Bronte pistachio, and you can tell
• Location: at the start of the Corso, perfect for a gelato during the stroll
• Portions: generous by the usual standards
