Description
Pistachio Sfogliatelle. We make the Aragostina (or d’Aragosta), which is also known as the Sfogliatella lobster tail.
It is a variant of the classic, traditional Sfogliatella.
We fill the pastry with delicious pistachio flavoured cream.
Our recipe consists of only the best ingredients.
What are Pistachio Sfogliatelle?
We make a lobster-shaped filo pastry and bake it with choux pastry inside before filling it with pistachio flavoured cream.
We dust it with icing sugar and then finish with a dollop of cream and a slice of strawberry/fruit on top.
The Aragostina is a flaky, crispy, crunchy pastry.
We make a number of versions of the Aragostine Sfogliatelle.
Our original version is filled with vanilla Chantilly cream.
We also have a chocolate sfogliatelle, which is an Aragostina filled with nutella chocolate cream.
The Aragostina we sell on this page is filled with pistachio cream, which is a popular filling we also use in Cannoli.
Please call us if you would like other fillings and we will see if it is possible.
Aragostine Sfogliatelle originate in the Campania region and are a tradition in and around Naples.

The meaning of Sfogliatella

This refers to the texture of the pastry, which is comparable to stacked leaves.
