Pasticceria Valzani (Valzani Pastry Shop), Rome

Pasticceria Valzani (Valzani Pastry Shop), Rome

When it comes to desserts, Roman sweets may not enjoy the same level of fame as their Parisian counterparts, but they possess a unique charm all their own. One delectable delight to try is the amaretti or brutti ma buoni cookies, which may not win any beauty contests but are incredibly delicious. However, if you're looking for the perfect treat to bring back home, you must visit a traditional chocolate shop and indulge in some handmade chocolates.

Pasticceria Valzani in Trastevere is a true gem, transporting you back in time with its unchanged atmosphere since its opening in the 1920s. Overflowing with calorie-laden delights, Valzani is renowned for its sublime chocolates; yet, it's hard to resist the allure of traditional treats like mostaccioli and pangiallo. The beautifully packaged goodies make wonderful gifts, and the mouthwatering displays during Easter and Christmas are particularly enticing.

Treat yourself to the nostalgic ambiance and heavenly delights of Pasticceria Valzani for a truly indulgent experience.
