Located in Rome's Jewish ghetto, Pasticceria Boccione is a 200-year-old bakery that is beloved by locals for its delicious treats and fascinating history. Established in 1815, this family-run bakery is the oldest surviving bakery in the area and renowned for its specialties such as crostata made with ricotta and wild cherry filling, and pizza ebraica, a crunchy cookie studded with dried fruits and nuts. Though traditionally hidden under a blackened crust to avert papal decrees, it is now incredibly popular among all sorts of sweet tooths. The bakery sells out fast in the mornings so be sure to set your alarm, follow the aroma of carmelizing sugars, and join the line of hungry fans for the ultimate local experience.
