What is the first word that comes to mind when you hear Bomboloni? The first word that came to my mind was amazing!! What is a Bomboloni you ask? It is an Italian light pastry filled to capacity with fresh creme or fruit. There are more than 20 flavors to choose from creme brûlée to blood orange, and even nutella. I tried the vanilla cream and espresso. They are all natural and no preservatives.
At just $2 each you will want to try a variety of flavors so they have 4 for $7 or 6 for $10.
They also sell natural Italian gelato and sorbetti. The flavors change daily but when I went they had watermelon and a few other flavors available. I will try the gelato the next time.
I also had an iced coffee which they sell along with espresso’s and lattes.
I first heard about Bomboloni from the Cooking Channel and wanted to see what it was all about and I’m glad I did. These are great for picnics, bbq’s, to bring to work, whatever occasion. I know I’ve walked past this place a million times and never knew what I was missing.
They are located at 187 Columbus Avenue between 68th & 69th street NY, NY 10023 (212) 877-3080
