The rich, delightful taste, coupled with the historic charm of the patisserie, makes it an unforgettable experience. A must-visit for anyone in Erice seeking a taste of authentic, time-honored Italian pastry.

Simply amazing!!! Soft crunchy on the outside, and incredibly moist and soft on the inside

Very good. We ordered Genovesi crema/nociolla, very delicious small desert although the nociolla was like Nutella but probably homemade.one.

Tourist read. This is a generation pastry shop compare to Grammatico which is a money grabbing from tourist. Try the genovese here. Both side I believe they dont use much Almond anymore but far too sugar on their miny pastries. The old lady making pastry can be a bit tricky to deal with, she's over 80 by the look of it and been ther since the 60's. Bring cash and don't ask much 😀

This is where you want to go for the famous Genovesi. The place is quite an old style pasticceria where a lady serves customers and two people work in the back. The place is full of locals.

Prices are extremely reasonable and substantially cash only. I would advise to try also the orange biscuits that are really good.

Go here and avoid the mainstream place that is not as good

A bit hidden, this place appears to be an honest and authentic bakery which doesn't seem to have changed with the many tourists visiting Erice these days. The pastries were delicious, tasting like well executed homemade sweets. Excellent value for money.

This beautiful little bakery is a MUST visit!

The sweet owner/pastry chef makes everything by hand and it shows. The Genovese was not only beautiful, but absolutely delicious!

Prices are more than reasonable and the quality is on the level that’s hard to find in today’s world.

Lady is super nice and was understanding even though we didn't know any Italian. The traditional pastries were tender and sweet. Pure excellence !

Absolutely the best authentic pastries made the old fashioned way with the utmost care and authenticity. My father grew up in Erice and we’ve continued to enjoy the fabulous pastries throughout the years.

amazing biscotti. you must try the one with the cloves flavor.

Delicious and inexpensive cakes. I particularly liked the fig rolls. Nice old lady serving.

a small patisserie with delicious sweets... hands down the best in Erica (my opinion after testing them all)... and genovese dolce simply divine... definitely recommend

Really nice pastries

Delicious and wonderfully made traditional desserts. Loved it!

Old confectionery selling typical pastries. In particular, they have the best "genovesi" in Erice.

A tiny little bakery just inside a little courtyard - the Genoese cakes are delicious
