“This is a cream puff style cake. Nice creamy, easy to eat, not too sweet — just beautiful pastry. What I like about these is that in two bites they're gone. Very tasty hazelnut cream, nice and fluffy pastry but also a bit crunchy. Just perfect!”

Bignè
This is a cream puff style cake. Nice creamy, easy to eat, not too sweet — just beautiful pastry. What I like about these is that in two bites they're gone. Very tasty hazelnut cream, nice and fluffy pastry but also a bit crunchy. Just perfect!
Cestino di Frutta di Bosco
This refreshing looking forest fruit basket. These tiny forest strawberries make popping sounds when you eat them — another perfect dessert. Quite tasty!
Cestino con Crema di Nocciole e Pistacchio
A very cute looking pastry basket topped with hazelnut cream and pistachio cream. The pastry is very nice and fresh — it just crumbles in your mouth.
Babà al Rum con Crema alla Vaniglia e Frutta
A rum baba with vanilla cream and some fruits on top. Very nice looking, very soft and fresh. Nice and spongy — just look at that structure — and completely soaked in sweet syrup. I can never say no to rum baba. And the best part is that the price for all these with a small bottle of water is just €7 — amazing price for some extraordinary sweets.
