One year ago, we closed the doors to our Kentish Town parlour 🍨
And what a year it’s been 💫
We still miss our regulars enormously — the familiar faces, the chats over the counter, hearing your life updates and knowing your usual order before you’d even asked
But closing one door really did open another ✅
We’ve moved into our new production unit, built some incredible new business relationships, supplied more customers across the country, scooped at more weddings, events and farmers’ markets — and survived a summer of heatwaves that kept us busier than ever! ☀️
We’ve also added more awards to the cabinet 🏆 while continuing to make gelato without compromising on the ingredients or standards we believe in
One improvement we’re especially proud of is sourcing our milk & cream directly from a local, family-run dairy farm and their own single herd 🐄 🥛
In incredibly tough times for British farmers, we are proud to that we can support a family farm. It also takes us another step towards something hugely important to us — knowing exactly where our ingredients come from and sourcing directly from farmers and producers wherever possible 🧑🌾
And life has changed outside Caliendo’s too…
We’ve had more precious time with family and friends and finally started our dream hobby of beekeeping — even extracting our very first honey this summer 🐝🍯
To our Kentish Town customers who continue to support us , to our wonderful new local customers and our business clients across the country — thank you ❤️
One year later, Caliendo’s looks different.
But the passion, standards and family behind it haven’t changed
Let’s see what another year brings 💪
