Stuffed to order so you get that perfectly crispy bite, these cannolis are some of the best in New Orleans. Everything about these delicious pastries is homemade, from the shells to the ricotta cheese used to make the filling. Traditionally filled half-chocolate, half-vanilla, dipped in pistachio nuts, and topped with powdered sugar and cinnamon, these addictive sweet treats can be ordered in miniature or regular size, and can even be purchased in bulk so you can have them for your next gathering.

Be sure to check out Brocato’s website for more information, and don’t forget to give it a follow on Facebook.
