I stopped by to try this bakery out and the speed at which I ate my eclair once I got started could have frightened a small child. Can’t wait to try the rest of the desserts they have— especially the Marion berry Napoleon and the macarons.
The coconut cream tart is AMAZING! Best thing I have eaten in a long while. The marion berry napoleon is yummy too.
Being an Italian~American; this little bakery tucked into the corner of The Reed Opera House is my "home away from home." I adore the Lemon Zest Cookies!!!! Melt-in-your-mouth perfection!!! ...have had the Napoleons and Cannolis too, I always go back for more, every Friday afternoon. I think my next stop will be for Pizelles!! At Christmastime, they made me up a little box with a sampling of these for a friend of mind. And of course, they now have another regular !!!!
[After trying the cannoli, I've edited this to tell you all about it ] This is a delightful quaint bakery! The gentleman was ever so nice and made pleasant small talk while assiting me with my selection. His recommendations were spot on. These are THE BEST EVER MACAROONS! I'm quite a fan of them and this coconut has the most delicious flavor and perfect texture. I don't think they could be any better.
I can hardly wait to return for lunch to try their take on pizza!
Now that I've taken in the full experience of the Little Cannoli Bakery's star, I must share with you this is the very 1st cannoli I've ever had. You must have perfected this recipe because you aced this experience! Some past comments don't give the best rating but I'm curious, are there several ways to make this? Personally, I'm quite fond of this recipe. The filling was smooth and creamy. It wasn't very sweet but that is one of the favorite things I liked about it. It was the best accompaniment for the sweet, honey-almond shell! Topping one end were miniature chocolate chips and the other end, finely chopped pistachios-yum yum 😋! I could not say anything negative about it. Any other cannoli in my future has a big job to do if they want to impress me and get my vote! For now, my choice is The Little Cannoli Bakery! I'm excited for my next visit.
The owner is so kind and welcoming! It is my daughter's favorite place in Salem so we go every month. Would recommend the cream horn, the brownie bomb for kids and the coffee is local and delish!!
We go here regularly now. The two guys who work here are incredibly nice and they know my children well. The baked goods are delicious and the pizza is surprisingly good too! This is a small little gem tucked inside the Opera House. Check it out.
