Cosmis Pastries

I have also had their crème puffs and chocolate dipped macaroons. I loved the macaroons they were soft and gooey… very coconutty just the right balance between the cookie and chocolate.

A great traditional Italian South Philly bakery. Not another tourist trap, just a little corner bakery. Delicious and definately worth the trip!

The pastries always look much better than they taste. A recent purchase of their tiramisu cannoli tasted a bit sour. We have tried Cosmis multiple times, usually as a matter of convenience and have never been blown away. The service is cordial at best. There are much better bakeries in South Philly.

We have all been to a random stores and locations in our search for something rare and delicious. Luckily, google has landed me here since they were able to have 28 crème puffs ready that day. Yes, that’s a lot of crème puffs but one you start, you can’t stop and there were several of us. Ever since my last visit, I haven’t found a crème puff that satisfied my palate the same way. The texture was perfect and not overly sweet like the recent ones I had out of state. I think a visit next Saturday is much overdue.

Grabbed some pastries a couple of times here and they were all pretty good. The presentation is better than the actual taste I’d say. The carrot cake was very dry and disappointing

Really good cookies. But I got ripped off. A little under 2 pounds for $ 40. I got twice as much (as every bit as good) at Isgro for half the price.

The time to make the donuts guy could learn a thing or 2 on how to make a Boston cream donut. Never was a big boston cream donut fan, that’s b/​c I never had one made by Cosmi. Best donuts in Philly by far. Cosmi is another S Philly bakery gem, no wonder our city is so fat. Who needs six packs and self esteem when u can have great Italian pastries, cinnamon rolls and donuts. My only complaint is the cannoli’s cheese filling. I personally like my cheese filling a little heavier and sweeter. Not saying I wouldnt love to eat another one, then again i’m as picky on eating sweets as a frat boy at closing time at a bar.

this place is going to have me living in elastic band sweatpants soon. seriously, amazing pastries, amazing everything. go get some.

I haven’t sampled everything this wonderful bakery has to offer but what I have tried was out of this world. Their cannoli were incredible. The cannoli shell was crisp and held up nicely. Both the shell and crème had excellent flavor. I have also had their crème puffs and chocolate dipped macaroons. I loved the macaroons they were soft and gooey… very coconutty just the right balance between the cookie and chocolate. My husband thought it needed more chocolate but that’s because he is a chocolate lover. Their crème puffs were light and airy and the crème was thick and slightly sweet. Perfect. They have huge assortment of Italian cookies, pastries and cakes they even sold italian ham pie (which I have only seen at my grandma’s house) for Easter. When we stopped in there were people picking up pre-​ordered cakes and they looked heavenly. I can’t wait to go back.
