Scimone’s Confectionery and Apostle’s Fingers: Their originating legend is the metaphor of their success. It is said that the Prior of a Franciscan monastery had his fingers cut off for disobeying an absolute prohibition. Stealing is a sin, subtracting this delicacy from the other friars could not be forgiven!
In every myth there is a piece of truth and anyone who tastes Scimone’s Apostle’s fingers is aware of that: a delicate mousse made of cream and ricotta wrapped in a soft and thin egg pastry sprinkled with sugar and cinnamon, these delicacies have reached such a level of excellence that is impossible to find imitators in Palermo.
Moreover, a new season of cultural exchanges has been inaugurated in Sicily, involving gastronomic traditions from different Sicilian regions. This event has enriched the range of products and the competitiveness of Scimone’s pastry shop.

Our expert pastry chef Alessandro Scimone was telling me how many years ago Sicilian Cannoli were made by kneading sheep milk ricotta with pistachios, cinnamon or chocolate.
That’s how we got the idea of proposing them on our website Cannoli.online, under the category of Cannoli where you can also find classic cannoli and covered with pistachios.
All of the wafers are internally covered with chocolate in order to make them more delicious and to better preserve the cannolo from ricotta humidity during transportation.

Some days ago, one of our best clients Luigi, who had already tasted our traditional arancini, enthusiastically suggested us to offer our beloved clients the sweet version: chocolate arancini.
To be honest I wasn’t aware of their existence, but I was really tempted by the idea, so I immediately called our pastry chef who confirmed that chocolate arancini were not only delicious, but they were also part of the Sicilian culinary tradition. He told me he used to prepare them many years ago, and that nowadays it is almost impossible to find them.
He cooked some chocolate arancini for me, and right after tasting, I decided to put them online!
Rice is cooked with the milk and it goes perfectly well with chocolate. The taste of the crispy coating combined with a sweet filling make of this arancino a tasty masterpiece!
It is impossible to resist them! During the photo shooting for our website (Cannoli.online), our photographer Mario and I were always eating them, and no arancino was left!
