While in Palermo, we stopped by the Antica Pasticceria Mazzara. A pasticceria, as evidenced by these photos, is a pastry shop. This one was started in 1909, so it earned the antica title. All these amazing dolci and all I had room for in my stomach was a granita, or shaved ice. The rest can be enjoyed in photo format here.

| Gelato! |
| Granite, or shaved ice. Limone - lemon. Fragola - strawberry. Caffè - coffee. Arancia - orange. Menta - mint. Mandorla - almond, like amaretto. |
