I was at the local bakery by my house earlier today and I came upon this little piece of heaven. I hadnt had one in forever and it looked so damn good and once I took a bite I thought to myself this is ALMOST better than sex..:lol: Damn those Italians make good food.:lol::nod:

David - My Sicilian mother-in-law would scream the house down at cannoli being described as Italian :laugh: - they originate from Palermo, Sicily and you can't imagine how much that matters unless you live here in Chicago.:lol:

I guess you had some of the sweet ones with vanilla custard and cream. My mother-in-law makes me a savoury version with ricotta, goats cheese, parsley, basil, tomato and olive. They taste fantastic.......

Being raised in Brooklyn where there is like a bakery every 5 blocks I definitely am picky about pasteries, but cannolis, and rainbow cookies would be my favorite.:thumbsup:

I like those things, & I don't really have a sweet tooth. I like the way they put a little cherry on top.

Oh My Lord we miss cannolis in PA--we moved here 12 yrs ago fromNJ and my husband's question of the week is always "K" do ya have any cannolis for me ?" The best I can do for him is Wegmans!

I do indeed love cannoli and I can honestly say, this is the only place you should get them from: http://foodpages.ca/FranksSicilia
