Stuffed Artisan Cannolis

First tried one of these cannolis at the «Broadway Bites» and was so impressed that I tracked the restaurant down in the LES and bought some more. Really great cannolis with a wide variety of flavors (cookie dough cannoli, who would have thought?). I will admit its a bit pricey especially because the cannolis are so small but I can honestly say I have yet to find a cannoli as good as these.

Tried these at Madison Sq Eats and was not impressed (Pistachio, Chocolate and classic)
Id rather have the classic canollis at Roccos or Veneiros

I had the pistachio cannoli. It’s wasn’t necessarily worth its $ 3 price tag since it’s so small. Still delicious though!

Tried them again. this time at the festival. I really hope consistency hasn’t changed. They were soo good when they first opened.
The shells tasted burned… fillings not like they used to be… but the worst part was the aftertaste left my eating the shell!

I’m a sucker for anything seasonal, so of course when I saw the pumpkin cannoli, I got one.
I now wish I got four…
One of my new favorite Pumpkin flavored treats that I will now look for each Fall. The flavor was unmistakable. The shell crispy and perfect and just the right amount of filling.
I love cannolis to begin with and Stuffed Artisan puts the perfect twist on my favorite dessert. I can’t wait to try all of their flavors, all of which I bet will be delectable.

I find myself dancing a lot. For food. In my chair.
If you ever see me sitting quiet, eyes bright, with a smile on my face and swaying side to side, most likely I am not enthralled by the monster pastrami sandwich staring back at me but more enthusiastic about my future cannoli meetings. Cupcakes– blegh. Gelato– eh/​/​/​ohallright. My obsession right now is cannoli and whoopie pies (more on the whoopie later).
Walking through the Lower East Side on a Saturday afternoon is nice. It’s quiet and a different planet from it’s nightlife. The side streets are void of people and sadly, Stuffed Artisan Cannolis was too. How will a place like this survive? The emptiness didn’t deter what it tries to provide– quality cannoli with loads of cheer. The bright décor of stars, contemporary art, and painted wood flooring balanced with the simplicity of just two butcher block tables and pale pastels all around made me happy.
The cannoli up close is captivating. Whoa they look huge. And then I saw the regular sized cannolo shell and compared to that, yes the cannoli at Stuffed Artisan Cannolis are mini. I decided to get the 3 for $ 5 deal and the counter girl gladly cut them all in half for sharing. Service is friendly, welcoming and helpful here. I already want to come back and try more flavors.
I think we got lucky. Our combination of Two Face, Nutella, and Peanut Butter Cup were crowd pleasers. I definitely liked them more than my friend did, as we have realized that we have drastically different palates. Nonetheless, we both have an appreciation for sweets and Stuffed Artisan Cannolis was worth walking the extra block around the corner.
The ricotta cheese whether mixed with chocolate, peanut butter, or hazelnut flavorings was smooth. The chocolate that coated the cannoli shells was dark and delicious. These cannolis were cold and when bitten shattered. It was a bit messy to eat. The chocolate melted quickly on my fingers and to avoid disaster or crumbing I found it best to shove the whole taste into my mouth. Its a good thing what was going in was really good.
There is much debate whether 31 flavors and more of cannoli is too gimmicky or cheapens the classic Italian fare. When done right, as exhibited by Stuffed Artisan Cannolis, there is really nothing to scowl at. Maybe my five star reward is stretching it but these cannoli are right up there with Mike’s Pastry in Boston. It’s an experience and is definitely dance inducing. I love it, I love it, I love it…

My experience here was light and fluffy, just like the cannolis. You suddenly realize you’ve eaten four or five…
The person behind the counter was definitely helpful and patient.
$ 2 each or $ 5 for 3.
These babies are small but delectable.
I would highly recommend the Coco Loco. I would perhaps avoid the Pistachio and Mint Chocolate — they just weren’t as stunning.
Who knew you could do so much with cannolis? Even if you don’t like regular cannolis, these are worth trying out.

Pistacchio, all the way! I usually don’t actually say the phrase «Mmmm» when I eat something, but I did when I took my first bite of the pistacchio cannoli. If you love everything pistacchio like I do, please go here and try it.
Also tried the original and the mint chocolate which were scrumptious too. (3 for $ 5 deal.) Unfortunately, lots of the other flavors were already sold out even though it was prime after-​dinner dessert time. But, I’m still very happy that a cute, unique store like this has opened in NYC.

Another first day visit in the books as I waited patiently until the day Stuffed Artisan Cannolis opened. Located in a rather random spot on Stanton between Clinton and Attorney, there is a nice sign outside to guide you in.
Since it was the first day, the inside was sparsely decorated, but all I could see were cannolis, and many of them at that, all sitting inside the display case waiting for me to choose which flavors I would devour. I heard a faint, little voice — «Pick me.»
They could not have been friendlier in here, giving suggestions and just enjoying their first day of being open. In the end, the decisions were tough, but I went with 3 cannolis for $ 5 — birthday cake, pumpkin pie and peanut butter & jelly.
I enjoyed the pumpkin pie and the birthday cake, but the peanut butter & jelly cannoli sent me to another level. With peanut butter peeking out of both ends of the cannoli you could see just a drip of jelly on top. However, when I bit into the masterpiece, the jelly oozed out to make the most perfect combination of sandwich inside cannoli. The thick cannoli shell mixes with the light texture that is hidden inside to form a wonderful dessert.
