Cannoli

When the Pastry Chef discovered that I had never eaten cannoli before, this was quickly remedied by the appearance of three – one with vanilla custard and two with a chocolate cream filling.

I didn’t know what to expect. A deep fried outer? And then a soft filling? Crazy!

So I nibbled a bit of the outside and it was….pretty good!

They were dusted with icing sugar and I took one of the chocolate ones to try.

It was a bit of a mess eating them but the payoff was worth it. I’m happy to be able to now say that I have eaten cannoli!
