1Maritozzo

To end on a sweet note, maritozzo is one of Rome’s most beloved desserts. This soft, slightly sweet bun is split and generously filled with fresh whipped cream. 

Once given by suitors as a token of affection, maritozzi are now a staple in Roman bakeries and cafés, enjoyed for breakfast or as an indulgent afternoon treat. Light, creamy, and nostalgic, it’s a perfect way to finish a Roman meal.
