I heard about this place from a friend so when I saw a Groupon voucher for a box of a dozen of…read moretheir cannoli, I snapped up the deal and quickly placed a call to order. They don't have a big shop sign and no window decorations so they're pretty hard to miss if you don't know they're there. I was not disappointed by their cannoli, the shells were crisp and the ricotta filling was such great creamy goodness. The chocolate and vanilla were pretty standard, nothing too special. We had to keep some in the fridge and the shells were pretty soggy after a few days so best to only buy what you can eat immediately. When we were there, other customers were buying boxes of their other pastries so that piqued our interest and we will be coming back to try their other goods. They also sell gelato aside from their baked goodies, and there are some tables and chairs if you want to have coffee and a pastry there.

The food was well prepared and flavorsome in the classic Italian way. Nice wines too. Will definitely go back to try the pizza next time. The all-Italian staff are efficient and charming and nothing is too much trouble.

Sweetness INSANITY…read more Haberfield has taken over from Leichhardt as the Italian centre of Sydney. The restaurants here clearly tell that story. But this bakery tells it as well. If you arrive and don't find a queue out the door and down the sidewalk, you've done well. Those people aren't waiting for a table inside for a coffee and cake; they're waiting to get takeaway sweets. When the line moves and you finally make it in the door you'll see it: the glass display cases, 6 or 7 metres long I'm sure, filled with such beautiful and sweet-looking baked confections that you'll find it impossible to make up your mind. So let me make you mind up for you: get the cannoli. Any of them are good, but the ricotta cannoli are so good you would climb over the bodies of the innocent for them. You would sell your child's kidney. You would attend Latin mass for the rest of your life if that was the only way to get them. Dear sweet mother of all that's holy, they're good.

I have been a regular here for a long time and haven't visited for a while and decided my fill of their cakes. Decided to eat in as well as get some to take away too as you can never have enough of their delicious goodies. Pay and order at the counter and they will serve you your cakes on plates and bring out any hot beverages you have ordered after giving you a number. They accept credit cards with a minimum of $20 spend and a 2% surcharge. To eat in we had a Mocha and a Latte to drink. Coffees were nice and hit the spot. For our sweet treats we had Zuccherati (custard filled doughnuts) which were plump and fluffy filled with their delicious custard, Hazelnut Puff which had a nice choux pastry filled with the same yummy custard and topped with chocolate and hazelnuts and the star Cannoli Siciliani (Custard) which has a wonderful crispy outer shell and that great custard they use in many of their desserts. In their pink cake box to takeaway we have another Cannoli Siciliani (Custard), Cannoli Siciliani (Chocolate), Tiramisu Cup (With Coffee Liquor), Crema Puff (custard puff), and Strawberry Tart. Again all the treats are wonderfully indulgent and delicious. I am sure to keep coming back again...and again!

Mezzapica was one of the first Italian cake shops to open in Sydney. For years many Italians relied…read moreupon Mezzapica to supply the torte and cannoli for all their celebrations and a bride would not think of getting married if she didn't have a cake from Mezzapica. Many years later and there's lots of competition. The number of Italians making their way to Mezzapica for their celebration cakes have dropped but Mezzapica have fought back. They now offer a delivery service and they sell to a number of shops all over Sydney. Walking into the mall shop you wouldn't think that they would be big enough but out the back the pastry chefs are busy working all day making the shells for the cannoli, patisserie cream and cakes for orders have never been so brisk. Moving with the times, Mezzapica makes cakes from cupcakes, all the standard cakes ie: mudcake, several different varieties of mousse cake, cheesecakes and specialty cakes eg: handbags, soccer balls and gingerbread houses. Next door a Mezzapica cafe has opened and it serves Mezzapica cakes and coffee. Try getting a seat there on the weekend, there's rarely a vacant table.
