Sfogliatella: The Original Recipe for One of Italy’s Most Challenging Pastries – with Sabatino Siric
The sfogliatella riccia is one of the most intricate and demanding desserts in Italian pastry. Made with a delicate dough containing over 100 ultra-thin layers, and filled with a sweet ricotta-based cream, this iconic treat dates back to the Baroque era.
In this video, Sabatino Sirica, a legendary Neapolitan pastry chef and one of the last remaining masters to craft this dessert entirely by hand in his workshop, shares his personal take on the crunchy Neapolitan classic. Known for its technical difficulty, the sfogliatella has challenged and inspired generations of pastry chefs across Campania and around the world.
Sirica offers not only the original recipe, but also insight into the tradition, precision, and passion required to create a truly authentic sfogliatella — a dessert that continues to define Naples’ rich pastry heritage.
