1. Gluten Free Cannoli: flavors; chocolate and rainbow The Cannoli casing had a beautiful crunch with a light chocolate taste. To me there was enough taste so that is wasn’t plain but left plenty of room to taste the fillings! Ricotta Cream - The filling was bright and creamy. Very light flavor that adds a bit of additional taste and layer to add toppings! But don't get me wrong! I would use it as a filling again! Chocolate Cream - Wowser! That was good! Such a smooth chocolatey cream. I didn’t want to share! But I did really get them for my partner sooooo…

The four toppings were mini chocolate chips, crushed pistachios, candied cherries and candies orange. These went well with the two creams or just by themselves (my little girl ate all the leftover mini chocolates while we were not looking!).

2. Gluten Free Mini Cannoli Cake - This was a nice little treat. The crunch of the cake was more of a cookie (read the ingredients and saw it was made of GF biscuits) so the name was a little misleading. But the flavor was still spot on! I could have just eaten the base alone and been happy! The topping ricotta cream was decent but just a bit too strong in ‘sheep’ cheese flavoring. Not my first choice. I did, however, take a little of the base and put some of the chocolate cannoli cream on it……MAGIC!!! If I had one recommendation for Nica Nica it would be to make this an option for the GF Mini Cake. Have the ability to choose the chocolate as a topping.

3. The spreads I have tried are the Pistachio, Almond, and Hazelnut Brown. The spreads have been my favorite part. They are very smooth and packed with flavor. I have had them on bread, biscuits, and crepes. Okay…..I’ve also eaten them right off a spoon! Every new order will probably contain one or more of them!

Overall this was a great start to a taste testing of a bunch of Nica Nica products. With the first tasting of desserts and the spreads we have already tried, it makes my mouth water thinking about the treats to come! Thank you Giuseppe for it grabbing our attention at St. George’s...

During my visit to Belfast I found this shop on Google Maps and on a whim decided to try it out. My brother and I initially walked by the shop as it was inconspicuous - however, you could tell the spot was special as soon as we made our way inside. The owner was behind the cozy counter and immediately we felt welcomed, as if we were old friends. We were offered, and strongly encouraged, to try samples of the various sauces, spreads, and products being sold, all of which were of high quality. We ordered several drinks and a few pasties which were incredible. Even after our initial order, the owner continued to share his products with excitement, laughter, and appreciation. At no point did we feel pressured to buy anything and even after being persuaded by the quality the goods, the owner seemed humbled that we enjoyed everything. We will be back, probably multiple times, during our...
