5Cannoli Siciliani
Although cannoli originated in Sicily, they have become incredibly popular throughout Rome and can be found in many pastry shops across the city.
Each cannolo consists of a crispy fried pastry shell filled with sweet ricotta cream, often enhanced with chocolate chips, candied orange peel, or chopped pistachios. The contrast between the crunchy shell and smooth filling creates one of Italy’s most satisfying desserts.
For the freshest experience, many bakeries fill the cannoli only after you order, ensuring the shell remains perfectly crisp.
