An excellent maritozzo with whipped cream eaten in Rome
One of the symbols of the capital is certainly the maritozzo with whipped cream.
The last time I was in Rome I devoured one, in a well-known ice cream shop in the center.
Truly spectacular!

Here is the website of the ice cream shop/pastry shop in Rome where I tasted it: don-nino.it.
The maritozzo is a Roman dessert consisting of a small loaf of bread kneaded with flour, eggs, honey, butter and salt which, cut in two, is traditionally filled with plenty of whipped cream and possibly enriched with pine nuts, grapes and candied orange peel. This recipe is typical of Lazio, Marche and Abruzzo, while in Puglia and Sicily the name maritozzo indicates a braid-shaped dessert without pine nuts and raisins in the dough.
