Cartoccio

Tunnel of wonders.

The Cartoccio is a kind of Cannolo made of brioche, fried and covered with sugar, featuring a tunnel filled with sweet ricotta cheese and chocolate drops: a sweet spiral shaped bomb; it is the boldest of palermitan desserts with no fear of excess thanks to the unconditional love of decades of multiple generations of gluttons.
