Sfogliatella in Naples

A sfogliatella is a shell-shaped pastry from Campania with a ricotta filling. Naples makes two kinds: the riccia, with thin, crisp layers, and the frolla, made with shortcrust. Gambero Rosso says to eat a riccia warm, while a frolla keeps until the next day.

Dissapore picks the Santarosa at Pasticceria Mignone, the older version with custard and sour cherries. Number ten, Chalet Ciro, is named by 50 Top Italy alone. For pizza, see the top 10 pizzerias in Naples.
