Millefoglie di Cannoli
Maxi homemade French pastry rolls filled on the spot with tiramisu cream that is vanilla cream enriched with mascarpone cheese.
We serve them with fresh soft fruit and their coulis: sauce that is obtained by cooking them for a few minutes over low heat with plenty of icing sugar.

Amiable and pleasant brightness for this satin cork full of extraordinary richness.
Warm hints of honey, flowers and fresh aromatic herbs, ideal to go with a creamy and crunchy dessert without weighing down.
Did you know that...
Blueberries and cranberries are the most commonly used. The berries contain acids, sugars, pectins, tannins, vitamins A, C, and also a small amount of vitamin B.
Moreover thanks to the high content of anthocyanins the blueberries have beneficial properties on the capillaries and blood circulation; a lot of medicines prescribed in case of fragile capillaries or other vascular problems in general, are based on myrtillin.
The fruit is also indicated as an urinary antiseptic and, especially when dried, has astringent properties.
The chef's suggestions
If the rolls are filled with the cream only a few minutes before serving them they will keep their beautiful crispness that is the most interesting feature of homemade French pastry.They should not be contaminated and made soft by cream's moisture.
