A Carroll Gardens Counter Filling Cannoli to Order
Bite into ricotta-filled cannoli and jammy rainbow cookies at a Court Street bakery that has held the corner for decades.
🧁 Sicilian Sweets by the Pound
Court Pastry Shop has worked the same Court Street corner in Carroll Gardens for generations, a narrow counter with a mint green awning and cases packed with Italian classics. The shells for the cannoli stay crisp until you order, then get piped with sweetened ricotta and finished with candied fruit or chocolate chips.
Around them sit trays of rainbow cookies layered in almond sponge and jam, sesame biscuits, lobster tails, and Italian ices in warm weather. Regulars come for the cannoli and leave with a white box tied in string, the kind of ritual that keeps a neighborhood bakery alive. Reviewers rate it 4.6 across more than three hundred visits. It sits steps from the Carroll Street F and G stop.
