    Il fiocco di neve con crema al cioccolato è spettacolare. Un morso di paradiso! Personale gentile…read moree proprietario simpatico. Assolutamente da non perdere!

    Best known for their signature Fiocco, Pasticceria Poppella was born in Naples around 1920, and…read morestill family owned in the Rione Sanità Neighborhood it seems as though Ciro Poppella and Salvatore Scognamillo's brand has rarely slowed but only become more popular following renovations that make the store stand out from crowded surroundings. Held in high regard by Neapolitans, and equally famous with tourists, it is at Via Arena della Sanita' 24 that visitors will find bright lights from 06h00 to 22h00 daily, staff the perpetually smiling sort with English fluency that makes ordering easy. A full-service eatery with al fresco seating, it is across tiered-shelves that Poppella's good are displayed, usual suspects such as Cannoli and Tiramisu offered alongside Loaves of Bread, Entremets and Viennoiserie. Not a place for the indecisive, though fair prices and smaller-sized versions of Pastries such as Lobster Tails full of Chocolate allow guests to order a variety, it was in exchange for €10.90 that seven items were plated and served alongside Espresso, both Baba gone in two-bites and the one soaked in boozy Syrup less sweet than many. Of course serving Sfogliatella, though not warm-to-order like Napoli's best, it was once shattering layers were separated and citrusy Ricotta consumed that Fiocco di Neve took center-stage, the "Snowflake" introduced around 2001 surprisingly light despite Fillings of Pastry Cream and Cheese in a variety of flavors from which the original Vanilla reigned supreme.

    Just happened to walk by here and then after looking at the place on my map I saw that I had it…read moresaved because it had a good Pastiera. Unfortunately they were all out on the Sunday evening when we went so ended up getting a different dessert. It was a of giant cream puff with some creamy filling inside. It was perfectly sweet and the puff was also fairly nice. A nice late night treat split between 4 of us.

    Dropped by on a Sunday morning around 9:30am, since I was in the area and recalled this name coming…read moreup as one of the spots that served single slices of pastiera, which is baked ricotta cheesecake* with wheat berries, flavored with orange essence and bits of candied fruit (orange in Scaturchio's case). 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.
