"We were lucky enough to taste Maria's freshly baked genovesi... you can't imagine the goodness!"
"They are made of 2 disks of pastry, filled with lemony custard and then covered in icing sugar. Heavenly! The best place to eat these is in Pasticceria Maria Grammatico in Erice whose owner learnt how to make these from the nuns themselves."
"It is a humble pasticceria, as far as Italian pasticceria’s go, but their genovesi were truly amazing."
