Holy Cannoli is an Italian style bakery right off route 1.
The offerings are Italian inspired pastries, with a lovely single-serve flair. I loved the Tiramisu, a pair of ladyfingers with a wide flat shape, sandwiching cream and espresso between and ontop, garnished with a cherry. It was a fun light take on the traditional Italian dessert. The lobster tail sfogliatella was okay, but mine came a tad chewy as can happen with laminated pastry when it's sat in a cooler a little long. The cream fill however was spot on. The signature pastry, a Cannoli, came absolutely perfectly, crisp and flaky and a little crunch to the roll, a light dusting of powdered sugar, cream that was firm yet light, and a sprinkle of chocolate chips at the end, the perfect finger dessert.
All in all everything I tried met and beat expectations. I highly recommend you try out...

I cannot stress enough the quality service you get from the helpful nice lady up front and the quality you get out of Frank's end product. High quality food, high quality service that will leave you...

The place is tiny and in an odd location but don't let this fool you. I went in this morning because I needed something to bring to a last min christmas eve dinner and this was the closest place to my new house. I took a chance. Ordered several items along with a box of cookies so I can taste and not bring bad dessert to a friend and wow! Holy Cannoli is the right name for them! The canoli was by far the best but everything including the pinolis were on the money. I won't be going to a supermarket for my bakery goods anymore. I found my...
