Authentic NY-style Italian ices & frozen desserts
Our Story
New York Italian Ices was born from a simple belief: the best frozen desserts don't need a long ingredient list. Just real fruit, pure water, and the patience to churn each batch by hand until it's perfectly smooth.
For years, residents of Sarasota have come to our shop on Avenida Messina for a taste of something genuine — the kind of icy, fruit-forward dessert you'd find on a corner in Little Italy, but made with ingredients that actually taste like fruit.
