La Pasticceria di Maria Grammatico

Rumored to be the finest pasticeria in Sicily. Walking through the door is a trip back in time.

The shop is dedicated to the production of traditional cakes and sweets, they don't even serve coffee.

Many of the cakes have intriguing names, my favorites were "paradise cake" and "mother-in-law tongues".

If you want to try the archetypal Sicilian cannolo this is the place to visit.

A thin and crispy tube stuffed with creamy sweetened ricotta cheese. Beware very moreish.
