People lined up in front of Pasticceria il Boccione, Kosher bakery, pastry shop, Jewish Quarter, Rome, Italy. Pasticceria Boccione is a kosher bakery in the Roman Ghetto. Established in 1815 by the Limentani family, Boccione is best known for its cherry and ricotta tart and Pizza Ebraica, a sweet bread filled with toasted almonds, candied ginger, marzipan, pine nuts, egg, maraschino cherries and raisins. A small, unmarked store on the area's main street, The New York Times described Boccione's crostata as the "best in Rome." The Pizza Ebraica is reportedly Pope Benedict XVI's favorite dessert. The Limenti family has operated Pasticceria Boccione since it was founded. Noted for its "grumpy" staff -- Grazilla Limentani, three of her granddaughters, and a niece in 2019 -- it is the last remaining kosher bakery in the Ghetto. An hours-long queue regularly begins to form prior to Pasticceria Boccione's morning opening.
