Holy Cannoli Shells and Cream Inc. — Restaurant in Toronto

Holy Cannoli! We found dessert worth confessing over. Tucked away in South Etobicoke, Holy Cannoli Toronto is rolling out classic Italian treats that are creamy, crunchy, and canno-lie about how good they are.

We got an assortment of their medium fresh-filled cannoli, each one piped-to-order into a perfectly crisp shell. The chocolate was rich and silky, the vanilla smooth and timeless, the raspberry had a sweet-tart punch, and the pistachio was nutty, luxe, and slightly floral — a true standout.

Every bite was a love letter to old-school Italian pastry with just the right modern twist. The textures were spot-on: the shell stayed crisp, the filling was never too sweet, and the portions were generous enough to share… if you're feeling saintly. 😇

Whether you're grabbing a box for Sunday dinner or treating yourself after a walk along the lakeshore, Holy Cannoli delivers charm, flavour, and a whole lot of dessert joy. One bite and you'll be saying it too: Holy Cannoli, that was good.

I pass the shop every couple weeks to get my harcut. I have ALWAYS meant to go in, but am usually pressed for time.

But today, on the way back to the car, I stopped into HOLY CANNOLI. The selections are AMAZING. The lady that helping me (LIZ) was great. They pipe all the cannoli fresh after you order.

I ordered 6 MEDIUM CANNOLI. Chitchatted with Liz while she filled my order. I went back to the car where my husband was waiting for me... Only to find out that HE ALSO dropped into Holy Cannoli, for the first time and bought 6 MEDIUM CANNOLI. HA! His are lined with chocolate.

They are ALL sooooo good. Between the 2 of us (12 pieces) we got these flavours: CAPPUCCINO, COOKIES & CREME, LEMON, SALTED CARAMEL CHIP, ITALIAN CUSTARD.

If you find yourself down in NEW TORONTO, check this place out. You can order LARGE, MEDIUM and MINI cannoli. They also have a selection of other pastries.

I had to share this experience right away in my FOOD GROUP, on FACEBOOK - called...

They make really nice shells and cream. You can find them at lots of events and shows, usually with a delicious and relevant special flavor (ex: maple butter tart flavor at a butter tart festival or strawberry at a strawberry festival) in addition to their standard lineup.

Because they fill the shells to order they've ruined me for other places forever. You can't beat the crunch of a freshly filled sicilian cannoli.

Naturally when I saw they have kits so you can fill and eat them at home I had to get one. I'm outside their current delivery area, but Vanessa kindly offered to ship to me, even though that's not something they normally do. The kit arrived in perfect condition so I hope they start shipping.

Can't recommend them enough. If you're on...
