Bella Sicilia Cafe

Cannoli Pie

$6.50

A cannoli pie is like the beloved cannoli reimagined as a sliceable dessert. It starts with a buttery, flaky pie crust or sometimes a graham cracker base, filled generously with sweet ricotta cream - light, velvety, and gently sweetened with vanilla and powdered sugar. Mixed throughout often a hint of orange zest or cinnamon. Every bite captures the essence of a cannoli: creamy filling, and buttery pastry - but with the comfort and structure of a pie.

Rainbow Cookie

$2.50

The rainbow cookie (also known as a tricolor or Italian flag cookie) isn't really a cookie - - it's more like a petit four in disguise. It's made of three thin layers of almond sponge cake, tinted green, white, and red. Between each layer is a thin spread of raspberry or apricot jam, which adds fruitiness and moisture. The assembled layers are pressed together, chilled, and coated in a smooth dark chocolate glaze on the top and sometimes the bottom. When sliced, you get vibrant stripes of color, almond aroma, and a perfect balance of sweet jam and chocolate bitterness soft, dense, and utterly nostalgic.

Almond Cookie

$4.50

An almond cookie - especially the kind found in Italian or Chinese bakeries - is a soft, chewy treat with a deep nutty sweetness. Made from almond flour or ground almonds, sugar, and egg whites, it develops a slightly crisp exterior that gives way to a moist, tender center. The flavor is pure almond - sweet, aromatic, and toasty. Sometimes accented with a whole almond pressed on top before baking. It's often pale golden with crackly surfaces, and when fresh, it melts on the tongue with that signature marzipan-like richness.

Cannoli

$4.00

Is a classic Sicilian pastry that looks like a golden, crisp tube dusted in powdered sugar. When you bite into it, the shell shatters delicately, revealing a cool, creamy ricotta filling inside - sweet but not overly so, often brightened with a touch of orange zest or studded with chocolate chips or pistachios. It's a beautiful contrast of textures: crunchy on the outside, silky and rich within.

Sfogliatella

$6.00

Is one of Naples' most famous pastries, instantly recognizable by its seashell shape and shimmering layers of paper-thin dough. Each layer crisps up in the oven until it's flaky and golden, crackling as you pull it apart. Inside, the filling is warm and fragrant - a blend of sweet ricotta, semolina, candied orange, and a hint of cinnamon. The outside is crisp and delicate, the inside creamy and aromatic - a true labor of love to make and to eat.

Stuffed Croissant pistachio

$7.00

Stuffed croissant or cornetto ripieno as it's called in Italy, is softer and slightly sweeter than the french version. Its buttery layers are tender rather than shatteringly flaky, and it's often filled with smooth pastry cream, fruit jam, or glossy Nutella. Lightly dusted with sugar or glazed, it's the perfect morning pastry - rich, comforting, and best enjoyed with a cappuccino.

Bombolone

$5.00

Is Italy's answer to the donut - round, plump, and dusted generously with sugar. When fresh, its golden exterior is just crisp enough to give way to a soft, airy interior filled with creamy custard, chocolate, or fruit jam. When you take a bite, the filling often spills out slightly - sweet, warm, and indulgent. It's simple, comforting, and irresistibly satisfying.

Eclair

$7.00

A long elegant french pastry made from light, airy choux dough that's baked until hollow inside. It has a delicate, golden shell that's slightly crisp on the outside and tender within. After baking, it's filled with a silky pastry cream or custard - often vanilla, chocolate, or coffee flavored - and topped with a smooth layer of shiny icing or chocolate glaze. When you bite into it, you get a mix of textures: crisp shell, creamy filling, and glossy sweetness on top.

Pasticciotti

$6.50

A beloved pastry from Southern Italy, especially Puglia and lecce. It's a small, oval-shaped tart made from buttery shortcrust pastry filled with warm, velvety custard cream - sometimes flavored with lemon zest, vanilla, or even a touch of cherry. The crust is golden and slightly firm to the bite, while the filling is soft, comforting, and aromatic. Traditionally eaten warm, a pasticciotto feels like a hug in pastry form - simple, rustic, and deeply satisfying.

Biscotti

$1.00

Are crisp, twice-baked Italian cookies that are perfect for dipping into coffee or sweet wine. They start as a long loaf that's baked, sliced, and baked again until firm and crunchy. The result is a hard, dry cookie with a satisfying snap. Classic versions include almond, pistachio, hazelnut, or chocolate chip, and their subtle sweetness makes them ideal for soaking up espresso or vin Santo. Biscotti are rustic, long-lasting, and perfectly balanced between sweet and toasty.

Sandwich Cookie

$2.50

Is made by pairing two flat cookies with a creamy filling between them - almost like a little dessert sandwich. The cookies themselves can range from crisp to tender, depending on the recipe, and the filling might be buttercream, chocolate, jam, or frosting. Italian variations often use delicate shortbread-style cookies filled with apricot jam or chocolate and dusted with powdered sugar. Each bite gives you that mix of crumbly cookie and smooth, sweet center.

Butter Cookie

$0.90

Is a melt-in-your-mouth treat made from a rich, buttery dough piped into elegant shapes - like rings, twists, or flowers. They're golden and crisp at the edges, soft at the center, and often decorated with a cherry, sprinkles, or half-dipped in chocolate. The flavor is simple but luxurious: pure butter, sugar, and vanilla, sometimes with a hint of almond. You'll find them in almost every Italian bakery, usually arranged in colorful assortments behind glass.

Lemon Cookie

$0.95

Lemon cookie is a soft, fragrant treat that tastes like sunshine in pastry form. Depending on the recipe, it might be slightly crisp on the edges and tender inside, or cakey and light. What makes it special is the bright lemon flavor - from zest, juice, or both - which adds a refreshing tang that balances the sweetness. Many are glazed with a thin lemon icing that gives a glossy finish and an extra burst of citrus in every bite.

St Joseph

$6.50

St. Joseph pastry-called zeppole di San Giuseppe or Sfinge di San Giuseppe-is a traditional Italian dessert made specifically for st. Joseph's day. It's made from pâte-à-choux (choux pastry), the same dough used for cream puffs and éclairs, but shaped and finished in a more decorative, richer way.

Creme Horn

$4.00

A crème horn (also called a cream horn) is a classic pastry made by wrapping thin layers of dough around a cone-shaped mold, baking it until crisp and flaky, and then filling it with sweet cream.

fruit croissant

$8.00

A buttery, flaky pastry with crisp, delicate layers that give way to a soft, airy interior, often split or filled with smooth vanilla pastry cream and topped with fresh, juicy fruit like strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries, creating a balanced bite where rich, golden butteriness meets bright freshness, sometimes finished with a light glaze for a subtle touch of sweetness (Not always made like picture above)

Stuffed Croissant yellow creme

$7.00

Stuffed croissant or cornetto ripieno as it's called in Italy, is softer and slightly sweeter than the french version. Its buttery layers are tender rather than shatteringly flaky, and it's often filled with smooth pastry cream, fruit jam, or glossy Nutella. Lightly dusted with sugar or glazed, it's the perfect morning pastry - rich, comforting, and best enjoyed with a cappuccino.

Lobster Tail

$5.50

A mini lobster tail is a flaky, shell-shaped Italian-American pastry, smaller than its bakery-case cousin but just as indulgent. Its name comes from its resemblance to a curled lobster tail - layers upon layers of delicate, buttery puff pastry folded into a fan shape. When you bite into it, the exterior shatters with a satisfying crispness, revealing an airy, hollow center filled with a luscious sweetened ricotta or vanilla custard cream (sometimes whipped cream or a rich diplomat cream). The pastry is often finished with a light dusting of powdered sugar, making it both elegant and decadent - crisp on the outside, silky within, and subtly caramelized at the edges.

Tiramisu

$9.00

One size. Tiramisu is a classic Italian dessert that translates to "Pick me up," and it lives up to its name. It's made by layering espresso-soaked ladyfinger biscuits (savoiardi) with a velvety mascarpone cheese mixture that's whipped with egg yolks and sugar, sometimes lightened with fluffy whipped cream. Each layer drinks in the bittersweet aroma of coffee and a hint of Marsala wine or rum. The top is dusted generously with dark cocoa powder, creating a slightly bitter contrast that balances the creaminess below. When you take a forkful, the layers melt together - cool, coffee-soaked, and silky - with the faintest whisper of chocolate and liqueur.
