Service Description

With this exclusive MasterClass, you will discover the secrets of the "Traditional Cannolo of Piana degli Albanesi" according to the ancient tradition kept by the nuns of the College of Mary. The cannoli from Piana degli Albanesi is undoubtedly the best known and most recognized dessert of the extraordinary and rich Sicilian pastry shop. Today's cannoli has undergone an "evolution" determined by the needs of the market and the ever-increasing demand. We will reveal to you the secrets of the "traditional cannoli" kept by the Collegine Sisters who give us the emotion of an ancient and extraordinary taste and the choice of genuine and simple ingredients including ancient grains with a very low percentage of gluten. Furthermore, this cannoli does not use granulated sugar but honey which was one of the natural ingredients used for sweetening. We will welcome you right in the Collegio di Maria which overlooks the main square of Piana degli Albanesi, where you will meet the producers of the supply chain to discover with them the secret of choosing the ingredients. The secrets of the ancient recipe will be revealed to you, you will discover how to dose and combine the ingredients and you will create your own Traditional Cannolo from Piana degli Albanesi.
