I had the Nocciolato flavor which is hazelnut and chocolate and another dark chocolate flavor I can't remember the name of. So creamy and rich with a great depth of chocolate flavor. I had it in a cup but it did include a small cone as well. The staff was friendly and since the shop is small there is no seating inside but there are plenty of places you can enjoy your gelato outside. I ended up going twice while I was in Napoli.

Traditionally this is eaten during Easter time, though this bakery carries it off season too. Though I carried it around for several hours in my bag, the texture was still pretty good at the end of the day, moist, strong citrus in the flavor department. Lightly sweet and rich from the ricotta. The wheatberries add a slight chewiness to the texture. They also carry a variety of other traditional desserts like rhum baba, sfogliatelle riccia and frolla, zeppola di San Giuseppe, coda d'angostura (lobster tail), cannolo Siciliano and others. The shop isn't large, pasty displays on the right, register on the left. Seating outside in the open plaza across the walkway. Service was just ok, I wouldn't say it was stellar. The ladies at the counter seemed in frowning moods, not exactly welcoming. When I didn't know to insert cash into the machine to pay, she just pointed at it until I got the idea. *I'm unsure why no websites refer to it as cheesecake and instead call it a pie or dessert filled with a ricotta cheese mixture. It looks and tastes essentially like a type of cheesecake to me...the overwhelming ingredient is cheese. Feels kinda misleading to not classify it as such bc I was under the impression that there would be more crust as a pie, of which it barely had any.

If we were in Naples longer, I'm sure we would've been making daily visits here to satisfy our sweet tooth. Highly recommend if you're in Naples on the hunt for some amazing gelato!

Not easy to find parking and if you make the wrong turn.. good luck getting out. It was slightly sprinkling outside when I pulled up. I had to try two different ones. I got the wild strawberry and the cookies and cream in a cone. A bite into the cold strawberry and you can taste that is made from real quality strawberries. Not that artificial stuff. The cookies and cream was another hit as it was cookies were still crunchy and not soggy. Not icy either. This was a real treat. Didn't love gelato before till today. Recommendation: cookies and cream gelato. Strawberry gelato in a cone.

She never did summon us back in, but then the other guy working raised his eyebrows and gave us a look like "what are you waiting for?" However, he seemed annoyed to have us in there too. Then when I went to pay with a 10 euro bill, he refused to take it, as there was a tiny rip on one side. My money was literally no good there. He was very mad at me. So I dug out a 20 instead to pay for my gelato. The gelato was pretty good, but the service kind of took away from that.

Easily accessible from Napoli Centrale, and best known as one of Naples' most traditional Pasticceria, Carraturo opens its doors beginning at 06h30 Tuesday through Sunday, a diverse collection including several items no longer sold elsewhere available though Sfogliatelle remain the most popular choice by far. Producing Naples "little leaves" by the hundreds daily, and reportedly the birthplace of Sfogliatella Frolla which places Ricotta Cream inside a Shortcrust originally intended for "common people" unable to afford the better-known Sfogliatella Riccia, it is from Carraturo's elder oven that each warm Pastry is served, a cost of €1.50 amongst the city's cheapest despite unparalleled taste and texture. Built on tradition, at least six-dozen additional Pastries made on-site daily, guests will also find a full bar and Espresso offered inside L'Antica Pasticceria Carraturo L-shaped interior, the Torrone delightful with prominent Almond notes while Mostacciolo Duro is something like the consistency of Honeycomb dipped in a rigid Dark Chocolate shell. Confusing with Sapienza, a seemingly inedible Biscuit that actually drew blood on second-attempt to chew, it was setting this aside that Carraturo's Baba proved unforgettable thanks to Limoncello Frosting, while both styles Sfogliatelle made fans immediately want to apply for Italian citizenship and move in next door.
