What you can expect

Explore the sweet flavors of Catania on a guided food tour through the city’s most authentic local pastry shops and cafés. Over 2 hours, enjoy a delicious tasting experience with drinks included across 4+ carefully selected stops. Your English-speaking guide will share the stories, traditions, and culture behind Sicily’s most iconic desserts. The tour runs in a small group, ensuring a relaxed and personal experience.

Begin your culinary journey by tasting Iris, a traditional Sicilian fried pastry with a soft sweet dough filled with rich chocolate or creamy ricotta, a beloved specialty originally created in Catania. Then indulge in Setteveli, the famous seven-layer chocolate and hazelnut cake featuring delicate mousse, crunchy layers, and silky textures that perfectly showcase the excellence of Sicilian pastry making.

Continue exploring Catania as you enjoy granita and brioche, one of Sicily’s most iconic combinations. Refresh yourself with the smooth and icy granita available in flavors such as almond, pistachio, coffee, or lemon, served with a soft and fluffy brioche col tuppo, traditionally enjoyed by locals for breakfast or during warm summer afternoons.

Finish your tour with the legendary cannolo, Sicily’s most famous dessert, featuring a crispy golden shell filled with sweet ricotta cream and often garnished with pistachios, candied fruit, or chocolate chips. This tour is a perfect combination of authentic flavors, local culture, and unforgettable culinary experiences in the heart of the city.
