I'll start by saying that I didn't visit in person--I ordered twice through DoorDash while visiting…read moremy mom. I was specifically searching for gluten-free desserts and came across Holy Cannoli Shells and Cream. The last time I had a gluten-free cannoli was in Rome, and unfortunately, it was a huge disappointment. So, when I placed my order, I was praying this experience would be different.
Since I wasn't sure which flavors were gluten-free (or which ones tasted best), I went with the assorted box. When the order arrived, I took my first bite--and wow. Absolutely delicious! I tried the vanilla and chocolate flavors, and before I knew it, my cousin had devoured most of them. The next day, only three were left: vanilla, chocolate, and pistachio. My uncle took the pistachio, my mom claimed the chocolate, and I enjoyed the last vanilla one.
Of course, I had to order more--why not, right? But when I tried again on DoorDash, it showed they were closed. So, I waited and placed another order the next night. This time, I made sure to grab the pistachio one first--and wow, I was missing out! It was incredible. Later, I found out that all their fillings are gluten-free and made with real ricotta cheese, which explains why they taste so authentic and fresh.
When the second box arrived, I noticed a card on top. To my surprise, it was a sweet, handwritten note addressed to me. That personal touch meant so much!
Now, I have to visit in person before I head back to the States on Sunday--to say thank you and grab two more boxes to take home!
So, if you're celiac and craving a truly amazing cannoli (paired with outstanding customer service), this is your spot. You'll be so happy and satisfied--trust me!
