Only original pastry sweets from local tradition, highly recommended to have a taste of some typical dessert of Rome, hard to find elsewhere. Family-based artisan small factory that operates since 1922 AD. Nothing to share with most of the food shops, even in Trastevere, in...which - unfortunately at present - you can find only industrial factory junk food.More
We didn't know this pastry shop, but we had heard about it. It is located in the very heart of Trastevere, in Vicolo del Moro, not far from Piazza Trilussa. It is not the usual French-style pastry: in fact it mainly offers products based mainly...on chocolate, chocolates and derivatives. So here you will not find the typical pastries that the Romans buy on Sundays for the usual Sunday lunch, those with custard cream, whipped cream, the babas, the sfogliatelle, profiteroles, tiramisu, which need to be kept at a low temperature. But you will certainly find good cannoli and an excellent Sachetorte, the chocolate cake of Austrian origin, in different sizes. It is small but cozy shop. Just enter and immediately it seems to go back in time, with a yesteryear atmosphere. You have to try it, if you like that kind of dessert.More
We walked down Via del Moro from Piazza Trilussa often to get back to our airb&b and the sweets in the windows lured us in. So many yummy chocolates and baked goods. Pro Tip: Learn a few Italian phrases before just popping in expecting to...speak to someone in English .. your taste buds will thank you for the effort!!More
Good pasticceria, but check a shop assistant to put all the things in a bag, in my case she forgot to put a meringue (but she added it to my bill).
This is a pastry shop that we had visited some time ago but then disappeared. We were happy to find it open again on our recent visit to Rome. It is near the church Santa Maria in Trastevere on the via del Moro 37B. Our...favorite food from Valzani is the freshly filled cannoli and we also liked the chocolate-covered candied orange peels and the chocolate pieces with and without small pieces of candied orange peel. Prices were relatively high but we found the products well worth that price.More
Walked past this shop and stopped. A Guy recommended us the Cannoli. Hard to get a good one in Rome bit here it is great. We had to try. So Good!
As we walked through Trastevere this old school shop caught our eye. It was difficult to decide on what to get, all the chocolates looked so good. We decided on these chocolates called "diavoletti'" (little devils) they were dusted with cocoa and cayenne powder. Absolutely...delicious.More
If you are looking for edible gifts to take back ( or eat yourself!) this is your place. In the heart of Trasvetere, worth visiting in itself, is this real old fashioned sweet maker. Chocolate of every sort, including chocolate cups and saucers, animals, violins,...and sweet treats, all at reasonable prices. Worth a visit.More
A 92 year old pastry shop in the heart of Trastevere district in Rome. On the walls there are copies of the paintings by the old pastry chef. I suggest you to try the desserts that date back to the ancient Romans and that are...still homemade today: panforte, panpepato and mostaccioli.More
A few steps away from Santa Maria in Trastevere (careful - if you walk too fast you'll miss it) is this surprise confectioner. Step inside and back into time, when sweets and chocolates were carefully made by hand, and the people were proud of their...products. The store is not overflowing with stuff (most of the goodies disappear really fast as locals and connoisseurs pilage the place early every day) so get there on time.More
I travel to Rome each year and Valzani is always my second stop upon arriving (after my apartment check-in). The best Cannoli on the planet and amazing chocolates! Do yourself a great favor and make a trip to this excellent Pasticceria ... in the heart...of Trastevere.More
So much to chose from in this quaint pasticceria which was recommended to us by our Roman friend who lives a few streets away. We went for the orange chocolate and torrone. No regrets whatsoever! Hard to leave...
My sister and I shared a memorable two weeks in Trastevere. We had walked by this place on our first week, and the window display caught our attention because of the cannoli and Sacher torte! We finally gave in and went in to order cannoli,...which the young lady behind the counter filled with whipped ricotta. After the short walk back to our hotel, we devoured them. Absolutely delicioso! The bakery is run by a lady who sits behind the cash register and greets you in Italian. Lovely experience! You almost feel like a local.More
While visiting Rome in 2011 we lived in the Trastevere area on a street named Via del Moro. In this street we found one of the best chocolate shops I've ever been in. It was filled with sweet treats, black and white pictures of the...shop's history and a sweet elderly lady placed behind the cash register. She looked to be about 60, but said she was in her 90s! When we asked how she managed to look to young and beautiful she said chocolate! We also had some of the BEST cannolis ever. They were perfect, and we kept coming by the shop during out visit to get more! Next time I go back to Rome, this is the first place I'm going to go.More
