Which butter do you use?

What is Acasamia?

Acasamia is Don Peppinu’s new project, created for those who live far from Sicily but don’t want to give up the uniqueness of Italy’s No.1 Original Sicilian Gelato. Thanks to our gelato kits and included recipe booklet, you can prepare premium-quality gelato at home using Don Peppinu’s finest agricultural ingredients.

Why don’t you ship gelato anymore?

AWe’ve temporarily suspended gelato shipments as we search for couriers capable of ensuring frozen transport that meets our high quality standards and the expectations of our customers — who are always our top priority.

Does the deconstructed Panettone lose quality if not baked all together?

Without full baking, the dough may lose a bit of softness, but the fillings retain their full aromatic character. The candied fruit releases more intense citrus notes, and the sultanas preserve the essence of Marsala wine. While some texture is sacrificed in the dough, the flavors of the fillings are enhanced, offering a more authentic and expressive taste experience.

What’s the difference between sourdough and brewer’s yeast?

Powdered sourdough, often used in industrial mixes, needs a boost from brewer’s yeast to activate fermentation. However, it doesn’t offer the same quality as traditional sourdough. Brewer’s yeast, while fast and convenient, makes the final product less soft, speeds up drying, and results in a denser crumb. That’s why many so-called “artisan” panettoni often turn out dry and heavy compared to truly authentic ones.

Do you sell Cannoli to restaurants?

Absolutely! Contact us on WhatsApp at +39 351 504 9016 to discover our exclusive offers for restaurants and businesses.

What’s the difference between raw pistachio and Bronte pistachio?

While similar, Bronte pistachios stand out for their pure, unmistakable flavor. Raw pistachios, on the other hand, come from a blend of different origins and lack the distinct taste profile of Bronte’s unique variety.

Best cannoli!!!!

Pâtisseries et glaces incroyables, très gourmandes ! Cependant, il faut d'abord payer avant d'aller demander, et cela n'était pas bien expliqué. Un petit bémol, mais ça reste une excellente adresse pour les gourmands !

Gianni Breccolini

Non ho messo 5 stelle poiché 5 euro per una coppetta con panna mi sono sembrate un po troppe....ma sulla bontà del gelato nulla da dire....però c'è da aggiungere che il gelato lo mangi sulla piazza del Duomo.

Eccezionale! Ho mangiato una granita cioccolato di modica IGP e fragolina: squisite! Ma soprattutto un cannolo con granella di pistacchio senza glutine che non ho parole per descrivere. Abituata a non poter mangiare niente per la celiachia, mi sembrava di essere nel paradiso laico dei golosi. Una menzione d'onore va a Irene, gentilissima e attenta alle mie esigenze alimentari.
