  • About

In Campania and Naples, sfogliatella is sold in bars as a rather wonderful snack. They are usually served warm, but are also very good cold. There are two varieties, one a simple pocket of shortcrust pastry and the other a much more elaborate affair involving a special puff pastry, made with a dough of lard instead of butter. The filling usually consists of cooked semolina with ricotta, sugar, eggs, chopped candied peel and a few drops of vanilla essence.
