Holy Cannoli Cookies
Have you ever gone to an Italian bakery and were intrigued by the wide variety of cookies, only to be disappointed because many of them are made from the same batter, but made to look like a different cookie? Not so at Holy Cannoli Sweet Shoppe in Rochester, New York! We have at least 20 different cookies…all made from a different recipe. So a cookie tray from Holy Cannoli Sweet Shoppe will have a variety of flavors, textures, and colors to satisfy even the most discriminating palate. Cookies without nuts indicated with an *.

Holy Cannoli Cookies
We couldn't resist adding a cookie that tastes like a cannoli! These cookies are full of flavor with ricotta cheese, chocolate chips, and pistachios.

Venetians
A favorite Italian tradition with a rich and decadent European flavor. Moist, colorful (red, yellow and green) almond flavored layer cookie sandwiched together with apricot jam and covered with ganache.

Chocolate Glazed Creamy Lemon Turnovers
Melt-in-your-mouth puff pastries filled with lemon curd and drizzled with chocolate ganache.

Pizzles*
Pizzelles originated in the Abruzzo region of Italy. The original pizzelles were flavored with anise, but the recipe has evolved to adapt to more modern tastes. Ours are a smaller version of the original cookie flavored with vanilla.

Melt Aways
As the name implies – these cookies are melt-in-your-mouth delicious. Delicate round butter cookie filled with an almond flavored icing.

Russian Tea Cakes
Cakes? It is a slight mystery why these are called cakes and not cookies, but no matter the name, they are delicious. How can you go wrong with butter, sugar and raspberry currant jelly? They are typically served at the holidays, but we think they’re a must for any special occasion.

Butter Balls
These are melt-in-your-mouth buttery cookies filled with chopped walnuts and a hint of almond flavoring, covered in confectioner’s sugar.

Little Gems
Buttery and sandy textured, this tea cookie is topped with a pecan half that hides a dot of strawberry jam.

Chocolate Crinkles*
These are deliciously soft, fudge-like cookies encased in a generous coating of confectioners sugar. The name “Crinkle” refers to the powdered sugar “crinkles” or “cracks” that form as the cookies bake. Our “Crinkle” is kicked up a notch with a little rum in the batter — so wonderfully soft they just melt in your mouth.

Rugelach
There is no resisting rugelach — they’re buttery, flaky, and have just the right amount of sweetness. Originated in Poland – this twisted cream cheese pastry is wrapped around a cinnamon-spiced brown sugar filling of finely chopped nuts.

Pecan Tassies
Each elegant little pastry is a morsel of flaky butter and cream cheese crust, filled with a light praline center. They’re a melt-in-your-mouth delight in every bite.

Hazelnut Kisses
Two rich fudgy cookies loaded with chopped hazelnuts and pressed together with chocolate filling.

Butter Cookies
Two mouth-watering shell-shaped butter cookies sandwiched together with fudge, dipped in ganache and coated with finely-chopped nuts.

Chocolate Dreams*
As the name indicates, this cookie is a chocolate lover’s dream come true. Delicate ravioli-shaped pastry pockets filled with ganache and lightly sprinkled with sugar.

Chocolate Almond Bonbons
Half cookie, half confection, these chocolate-covered marzipan-filled sweets are at home on a cookie tray or in a candy dish.

Mini Chocolate Madeleines*
This is a chocolate version of a little soft French cookie that most people think of as more of a cake than a cookie. Two rich shell-shaped chocolate cookies that are slightly crispy on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside, sealed together with a decadent fudge frosting.

Italian Meatball Cookies
Traditional Italian Christmas cookie – round, chocolate, spicy, loaded with walnuts and topped with a white buttercream frosting. Surely these cookies are Italy’s little taste of heaven.
