The techniques and recipes that founder Angelo Brocato learned in Sicily have been passed down from generation to generation, and are still used today in their shop! Everything is made from scratch, from the ricotta cheese filling to the shells.
These flaky Italian desserts are stuffed fresh to order, so you never have to deal with a soggy shell.

They come in regular or miniature size, and you can order them individually, or by the dozen. They are filled half-chocolate, half-vanilla, and then dipped in pistachio nuts and topped with powdered sugar and cinnamon. Yum!
