Cattedrale - BISCEGLIE

I was just wandering around the center of bish and I found myself in this cathedral of pastry bar. very small local but very equipped with pastries, prices contained for what you take. highly recommended. They were great!

The sighs of the nuns are spectacular. I personally really liked the coffee one which almost looks like a tiramisu. I recommend everyone to stop by if you pass by Bisceglie. I 'll add the story that I went looking for it: It is said that as early as the 15th century the Poor Clare nuns of Bisceglie made the Nuns ' Sospiretti in their monastery. made with sponge cake filled with cream and covered with pink icing. Hence the legend handed down, without any historical confirmation, according to which the nuns prepared the desserts on the occasion of the wedding party between Lucrezia Borgia and Alfonso of Aragon, illegitimate son of Alfonso Il of Naples, who she received as a gift on the occasion of the wedding , the duchy of Bisceglie. The marriage fell through. The guests, sighing with anticipation, were consoled with the sweets called sighs from that day onwards. Another anecdote has it that the shape of the typical dessert is a young pastry chef 's homage to his beloved woman, inspired by her breasts.

You can find the best sigh here, very soft and delicate

The sighs of Bar Cattedrale are the best and most delicate in Bisceglie, and perhaps in the entire world. The sweet glaze, always very fresh and tender. The filling is also rich in variations: the lemon cream tastes like that of grandmothers, with the peel cooked in milk and the coffee cream tastes like espresso. Extraordinary. Above all, the taste they leave in the mouth after tasting is authentic, and not the chemical sugar that generally lapses leaving the taste buds artificially stunned. Sigh art.

Pasticceria Cattedrale a Bisceglie è la pasticceria più buona a mio parere...la qualità degli ingredienti,la pulizia,l'igiene impeccabile e la professionalità dei ragazzi che ci lavorano la rendono unica. Io sono di Bisceglie e ogni volta che voglio assaggiare qualcosa di dolce vado direttamente da loro. Vi consiglio di assaggiare il nostro tipico dolce,il sospiro biscegliese ma anche i loro pasticcini che vi faranno venire l'acquolina in bocca.ma anche i biscottini al burro o i loro dolci di pasta di mandorle...è tutto squisito ve lo assicuro. Se volete fare colazione accanto c'è anche il loro bar gestito dal titolare Pierino,provate i loro cornetti sono super. Un saluto alla signora Maria,al signor Pierino,ai figli Vincenzo,Marilena e Graziano...una famiglia che gestisce questa pasticceria oai da anni con tanto amore.
