colorful sweets

Struffoli are a typical dessert from Naples. Christmas is approaching and it’s time for tradition. In fact, struffoli are generally prepared during the Christmas period and thanks to their small shape, the size of a chickpea, they lend themselves to spectacular decorations, using colored decorations of sugar and candied fruit. The name struffolo has an uncertain origin, the most probable being the derivation of the Greek word “Stroggulos” (“rounded in shape”).
