Naturally tasty cones and wafers for artisan gelato, since 1938

Ostificio Prealpino proudly carries a tradition that has spanned over eighty years, traversing three generations and rooted in an unwavering passion for quality, nature, craftsmanship, and gelato. Established in 1938 in Bergamo, set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Orobie Alps, the brand was born from the visionary insight of Franco Minetti. He skillfully blended the art of pastry-making with a forward-thinking approach to the confectionery industry. From its very beginnings, the company distinguished itself by the excellence of its products, rapidly becoming a benchmark for gelato masters—not only in Italy but also internationally.

It’s in that instant that the magic of Sherbeth is born the international festival of artisanal gelato, a celebration of knowledge, passion, and quality that transforms Palermo every year into a laboratory of happiness.
