Sweet Ricotta Delizia: A Versatile Sicilian Delight for Your Summer Menu

Delicate, creamy, and naturally sweet—sweet ricotta is a cornerstone of Italian patisserie, celebrated for its ability to elevate simple ingredients into timeless classics. Its origins date back to ancient Greece and Rome, where it was known as recocta—“recooked”—a reference to its traditional double-heating process.

In Sicily, the evolution of sweet ricotta was shaped by Arab influences, which introduced sugar, spices, and the art of transforming dairy into refined desserts. The result? Culinary icons like cassata and cannoli, where sweet ricotta plays a starring role.

Ricotta Delizia: Tradition Meets Convenience


At Gourmit.uk, we offer Ricotta Delizia by Centroform, a Sicilian producer active since 1984 and renowned for its dedication to quality and milk-based craftsmanship.
