Snowflakes that will not melt

The recipe of the popular cream puffs invented by Ciro “Poppella” Scognamiglio is a secret to be kept. The so called “snowflakes” require eight hours of rising and are filled with milk cream, fresh cream and cottage cheese.[charme-gallery]They are covered by a thin layer of sugar icing and are available in the strawberry, pistachio and chocolate flavors. Neapolitan pastry shops are full of imitations, but the original cream puffs can be found only in the “Poppella” pastry shop in Via Arena – Rione Sanità – and in the new shop in Via Santa Brigida.[charme-gallery]For Christmas, the new “snowflake panettone” will be available in the same fillings.
