Reviews Summary
Visitors consistently praise the authentic taste and homemade quality of Burano's traditional cookies, especially Zaeti and Almond Frollos.

"I wish I had bought more stuff! We got an assortment of fresh cookies. I honestly just pointed to things not knowing what they were and everything was incredible. You can’t go wrong here!"
Jennifer Kim
"We spotted this store shortly right after we got off the boat. During our stay on Burano island we saw also other pastry shops. Still I would say this shop is one of the best on Burano.
They offer a good choice of traditional venetian cookies, among which I found their Zaeti especially tasty. Cornmeal gave Zaeti its special taste and texture. Beside, I like their almond cookies too since you could really taste and see the almond out of it.
Prices are also reasonable for reals homemade cookies."
