We love Cannoli’s too!

Our love for Homemade Cannoli’s has also inspired the ChaRIZZmas Cannoli Martini, and the alcohol-infused Unholy Cannoli

 

Where did the Cannoli come from?ย ย 

Chances are, Cannoli’s were he influence of the Arabs who ruled Sicily, around the tenth century. They were the first to introduce sugar, and almonds to the Sicilian people, opening the door for wonderful culinary creations.

The first cannoli may have been created for a sultan in the Caltanissetta region. Others say a convent of nuns from the same region created the Cannoli.ย  Wherever it started, it traveled to the United States by the late 19th century, where it became an American favorite.

    I love the sound of this cannoli gelato. My husband is Sicilian and cannoli are his favourite treat! I have to look into getting a Ninja Creami. It seems like a fab appliance! BTW I’ve lived in Italy 20 years and have only ever heard Italians say ‘baciami il culo’ for kiss my ass. I’d be interested to know where ‘bacha ma culo’ comes from.
