Cangote Sorvetes
A one-person shop turned specialist statement: built entirely around a Northeastern Brazilian fruit pantry that has no equivalent in the city's Italian-lineage shops, sourced directly from family farmers rather than from a wholesale pulp supplier.
What we know
- Ingredients sourced mostly from family farmers ('agricultura familiar') in southern Bahia
- Ten flavours rotate daily; only cajá, tapioca, and nata com goiaba are permanent fixtures
- Founder is a former interface developer who closed a Northeastern restaurant during the pandemic before starting this shop with an initial investment of R$50,000, working alone at first and now with a team of five
- Distinctive Northeastern flavour list: cajá, ciriguela, queijo coalho, graviola, acerola, bolo de rolo
- Named directly by chef Catarina Ferraz of Cais as one of three sorveterias she most likes in the city, in a 2024 Terra piece
