La brioche con la panna a cui nessun romano può rinunciare. It’s a bold statement, but after your first bite, I’m sure you will find it hard to renounce them too.

If you’ve ever visited Rome, you will hopefully have experienced the exquisite cream filled breakfast pastry that is the Maritozzo con la Panna (Maritozzi Buns.)

Maritozzi are fragrant, sweet dough buns flavored with orange zest and cardamon, sliced in half and filled with smooth, fresh whipped cream.  They are a staple in Rome’s pasticcerie, and commonly found during the breakfast hours in coffee bars around the Eternal City.

Join Mary Storey for a wonderful evening recreating these amazing buns. You’ll start by dividing and learning to shape a batch of dough that we’ve prepared for you. While your buns are rising, you’ll make a batch of dough to bring home so you can enjoy even more Marizozzi whenever you like. Next, we’ll bake the buns, and while they are in the oven you’ll make the delicious syrup that the buns are soaked in immediately out of the oven. Finally, you’ll create your cream filling- you can go traditional and use fresh Chantilly Cream or if you are a bit daring, try Mary’s delicious Mascarpone Cream.
