Traditional recipes

Desserts

Cakes and desserts have a special duty in every respectable lunch or dinner: that of ending a meal on a sweet note for the palate. For this, making cakes and desserts is more than just knowing how to follow a recipe to perfection: it is art, it is a gesture of love.

Pan d’arancio (orange cake)

Cocoa diamonds

Easy apple cake

A quick and easy homemade apple cake, a staple of a typical Italian breakfast, bringing childhood memories of scents and flavours

Chocolate cream

This is an amazing version, both in taste and for the time needed to make it

Canestrelli

Canestrelli owe their deliciousness to the particular kind of shortcrust pastry used: ovis mollis pastry. The characteristic feature of this dough is the use of hard-boiled egg yolks, which gives it a very crumbly and delicate texture.
