Recommendations

"It's a great place to sample Sienese treats including cavallucci (chewy biscuits flavoured with aniseed and other spices)."
"House specialities (panforte, ricciarelli, cavallucci...) are excellent."
"The very first sweet I tried when I arrived in Siena was a cavallucci, bought at the famous pasticceria Nannini on the central Banchi di Sopra. I admit that I chose the cavallucci among all the sweets in a beautiful showcase because, compared to the delicate ricciarelli, the rudimental cavallucci were not only more affordable but also much more substantial (I was still a student at the time, constantly hungry and with only the remains of a miserable allowance money in my pocket)."
"Walking through the streets with cobblestones, going towards the center you will find the famous pastry shop Nannini, where you just have to stop and taste the panforte and the cavalluci."
"Ricciarelli, panforte, panpepato, cantucci, cavallucci: all sweets typical of Siena, that you can enjoy at Pasticceria Nannini, an obligatory stop for all the tourists with the sweet tooth."
"In Siena Nannini is much more than a caffè or pastry shop, it is a kind of institution, whose sweet specialties attract people of Siena and tourists. Pastries and cakes are some of the specialties prepared in artisan manner early in the morning, that can be enjoyed together with the typical Sienese ones (ricciarelli, cavallucci, panforte ...)."
"If you have a sweet tooth, start your foodie's tour at the Consorzio and then get down on it at Nannini's. Panforte, panpepato, cavallucci, ricciarelli,... you name it. Siena's famous sweets will blow you away."
"If you come to Siena and you wish a sweet break, I strongly suggest to copy the people of Siena's and go to Nannini's to taste some typical siennese specialities: ricciarelli, panforte, cantucci and cavallucci."
"Whenever I taste a cavallucci I suddenly go back to my childhood when I would go to Siena with my parents and sister at Christmas time. We would go to pasticceria Nannini to buy a panforte, one bag of ricciarelli and one of cavallucci... Maybe that's why I adore the sweets of Siena."
