Many of you know that I'm a total treat head. Give me a cannoli, a cookie, a piece of cake, a brownie, whatever, and I'll take it down. And smile. So, it says quite a lot when I *don't* finish a treat (or at least save it for later). Let's just say the majority of my treat order went in the trash.... :(\n\nHubs and I stopped by Nova's for a little sugar rush around 2 pm on a Sunday. Inside, Nova's is quite sweet - a cozy little nook to the right and a wide space filled with coffee beans and a small selection of treats. After chatting with the very kind employee behind the counter we selected a cannoli dipped in chocolate and a handful of rugulach (the equivalent of pie crust rolled up with a bit of jam/filling). \n\nFirst, the cannoli. We paid $2.90 for the dipped chocolate cannoli and it made me so, so sad. As soon as I cracked open the box and picked up the cannoli I knew it was destined for failure. It fell apart immediately due to the high moisture level in the shell - i.e. it was probably sitting in the case for sometime, piped with the cream. So, yeah, it was a mushy gushy mess and the flavor wasn't so hot. The cream was bland and a bit gritty, the shell wasn't crunchy whatsoever and the chocolate on each end was runny. I took one bite, hubs took one bite to try it and then it went in the garbage. \n\nThen the rugulach, dry dry dry oh my. Good thing I had a bottle of water in the car. We purchased two raspberry and two chocolate; suffice it to say that there were crumbs all over the car and two leftover rugulach that went into the trash. \n\nNow, I know I went on a Sunday afternoon - and many bakeries only bake once per day. However, if they would just bake the cannoli shells and pipe them every few hours, that would really make a huge difference to remedy the texture-less mess. I may try Nova's once more for their bread, but I won't count on it for any treat runs.
