Sfogliatella Napoletana

Delicious curly crunchy filo pastries in a shape of a lobster tail called "Sfogliatella Napoletana", filled with sweet pistachio or nutella cream. 

A sfogliatella, sometimes called a lobster tail is a shell-shaped filled pastry originating from Naples. Sfogliatella means "small, thin leaf/layer", as the pastry's texture resembles stacked leaves.

In Neapolitan cuisine, there are two kinds of the pastry: "sfogliatella riccia" ("curly"), the "normal" version, and "sfogliatella frolla," a less labour-intensive pastry that uses a shortcrust dough and does not form the sfogliatella's characteristic layers.
