I am Sicilian Heritage and tomorrow is my sons 22nd Birthday. I usually make him Cannolis but this year....starting today I'm going to make him this cake! Thank you!
I live in Texas and do not have access to an Italian bakery. I made this for my New York cousins when they visited and they loved it. I followed your decorating techniques and it came out so professional looking! I love your channel and most of all enjoy you , especially when I hear your speaking Italian! Thank You for sharing all your knowledge.
I live in Texas also, but I have lived in Spain. And we have dear Italian friends who are like family in Naples, Italy. And I love to serve European type food and desserts to my family and friends also.
What an incredible cake! You inspire me as I am not a professional baker either but I love to cook & bake. Thought a cake like this was out of my reach! It’s gorgeous as well!
I made this cake for my Mom’s 93rd birthday and she loved it! It turned out delicious! There are no Italian bakeries where we live and that is one thing mom has really missed, so this was a real treat. Thank you for sharing your recipe and showing that it’s entirely doable.
I'm a Dad who is going to make this for my future Son in Law's 30th Birthday Bash. He always has ordered them in the past but I'm going to outdo them with your generous help! I'm very excited. Thanks for sharing such an authentic recipe in such an authentic way! You are lovely!!!!!
That is awesome! Please follow the steps as you don't your son-in-law to complain😂. Any help needed, I am here to help! Thank you for watching my videos.
@@alessandrasfoodislove I very well need your help but I’m not making the cake until early July. I should probably do a run through before. Too bad I’m running a small café all by myself. But time is of the essence. 💖
Thank you for sharing this recipe. Your details were so helpful. The cake came out great. We really missed having this cake since we left NY. Made my 87 year old mother very happy.
Thank you so much Margaret. I do that because I want to make sure that anyone can make them with success. 💖 thank you for your beautiful words. Food is indeed love ❤️
Cannoli cake!!!!!? wow, cant wait to see this! I've never had a great cannoli outside of NJ. The best one ever was in Ridgefield NJ. I've tried at Italian stores and delis and bakeries galore, from DC to the West, but nope.... best ever in NJ. ❤❤
Thank you so so much! I know the bakery in Ridgefield, Rispoli’s right?? They make the best cakes. When I went in to buy italian pastries I would be mesmerized watching how they worked in the back. Hope one day to take classes and learn how to make sfogliatelle. Thank you always for watching. ❤️
@@alessandrasfoodislove I think so... I remember it started with an R... but it's been a very long time since I was there. I used to live in DC and my brother lived in NJ. I went there so frequently to see him (and do some Italian genealogy for a friend) that the car drove me there by myself. I loved the bakery in Ridgefield and also a little one in Belleville (Silver Lake). the one in Silver Lake was mostly bread. THE BEST BREAD. I don't know what happens to food once we leave NJ!!! It just isn't the same! If you ever make sfogliatelle, that will be an amazing video... but then... all of your videos are amazing! That's why we all love you so much!
Alessandra!!! I have viewed this video 5 times!!! I feel all your love as you smile and describe the ingredients. You care!!! Love it!!! I am Puertorican, and we have a cake similar to yours. Bizcocho mojadito, translates to Wet Cake. I was going to make it yesterday but I will be trying your recipe this week. I want to feel all your love and energy as I make it! Hope it comes out as beautiful as yours and make you proud!!! From NY, God bless you and thank you. I am your new subscriber. 👋😊😁🙏😊
Mi querida, Thank you thank you thank you! You just made my day. I have 4 beautiful Puerto Rican friends in my life and love the food and culture. Will be going with them to San Juan next year! 🇵🇷♥️ I make a few dishes from your beautiful island. Food is indeed love. Please do check out the rum cake recipe, that sounds very much like the bizchoco mojadito. As you bake I will be right there with you. SDQ I’ll be posting many more recipes. Hugs and kisses 💕♥️
This is a very impressive Itailian cake for a dinner party. I enjoy baked goods w/and foods that have liquare added to the recipe. Cheers to you and your Gradma!
Grazie Cara Mary! We have the same taste. What I love about this recipe and the rum cake that the more it sits the better it tastes. I also make a similar one adding canned peaches in syrup. Hope to do a video recipe soon. 💕
Thank you so much for this video and recipe. This is my favorite cake. My best friend used to buy this for me on my birthday, but I moved away 16 years ago and have not had it. I plan to make this for my birthday this summer. You are wonderful!
My dad’s 87th birthday was in December and he misses the cannoli cake he had growing up in Brooklyn. I mail ordered one from Ferrara’s as a special treat. Next time I will try your recipe! Maybe for Father’s Day😊 You always make things look so easy!!❤️
Happy belated birthday to dad. 🎂💖 this cake is not very hard because you’re not cooking the custard so I find it makes it easier. Make the sponge cake and syrup the day before. Next day you can just assemble it. Make sure you drain the ricotta. You can surely use rum instead of grand Marnier. You know I’m an email away if you have any questions. Sending you lots of hugs. 💖
Hi 👋 Alessandra Xoxoxo thank you 🙏 Hi how are you doing? Fine I hope 🤞. Watching you make this cake 🎂 brings back so many wonderful memories, When I used to help my mom make her sponge cake 🍰 this cake 🧁 is out of this world 🌎 Devine delicious 😋 I can taste it Already .I am so going to make this 🍰 cake ,wow I just don’t have enough words !!!!! I hope you enjoy 😉 the rest of your weekend.your friend Mary.
Hi my Darling Mary, It’s the memories I want to recreate. How wonderful that you helped your mom make the cake. One of my favorite too and easier than the rum cake because you don’t need to cook the custard. Actually a layer of custard would be off the charts. lol I’m making St Joseph’s Zeppole for Sunday dinner and making the crema right now. Sending you lots of love. La tua amica Alessandra
@@alessandrasfoodislove HI 👋 Alessandra I wish you and your family a wonderful family dinner 🥘,we just need to keep making those good memories for our children just Like our family did it for us ,and like you always say food is love ❤️ xoxoxo 🤗 🤗 . Ciao Bella Mary .
Sì, Alessandra la cucina è amore! I enjoy cooking-and especially baking-exactly for the same reason as you. I love the reaction of my family, my friends and my guests when they taste something that I made. Ah....mangia, mangia!
I've been wanting this for minimum of 35yrs, so glad I found it. Only thing is when I've had it in the past they put that layer of chocolate custard or pudding on one layer. It makes it incredible, but haven't been able to find a recipe.
I'm watching and enjoying this video , but when she gets to the piped icing and chocolate chips on top using chopsticks 🥢, I was like, WOW! That's a master Chef right there! That canolli cake looks so good I was dreaming of taking a fork and taking a piece right through the TV screen !
Thank you so so much!! Wish I was a master chef. Lol 💖 very kind of you. I believe that before eating we can almost taste with our eyes, exactly like you did with the tv screen. lol hope you’ll make this delicious cake.
Hi Alessandra….how are you feeling? You look and sound amazing. I just sat to watch your recipe for the cannoli cake. OMG!!! my mouth was opened the whole time. My son would probably leave his wife for that cake. They had a cannoli cake for their wedding. You are so good at describing everything and you’re so patient. I get so happy when I watch your videos. Did you get another puppy? I saw him before but forgot to ask. Adorable. I hope your nephew Joseph loved his two fav foods. Ok I’m going to watch some more even tho I think we watched them all. I’m usually up til 6am all the time anyway. Hope you don’t get too much snow. We are getting just rain. Have a great Sunday. High fives to the puppies. Our best to the family. See you on TV. Ciao Ciao. 👩🍳🇮🇹👏🌸😘
Hello my darling Maureen, Thank you so much for the kind words. I had the family over yesterday and they were disappointed I didn’t make the cake. I make St Joseph ‘s zeppole because I cooked and a big meal and just didn’t prepare for the cake. :( Now I have 2 lbs of ricotta I need to use. Yes, you did see a new doggie. We dog sit him on some weekends. He fits right in with our other pets. 🐈🐶🐶. He is also a rescue and so sweet. I truly enjoy sharing recipes and I want everyone to make my recipes and not fail. There another version of this cake with canned peaches. It’s so delicious too. Sending you lots of hugs, hope the snow is not so bad. We didn’t get any, just a few flakes. Lots of love to you and linguina. 💚🤍♥️💖💚🤍♥️
@@alessandrasfoodislove good morning Chef……..that is so nice to have family over. I miss those days. We had 17 aunts & uncles well I won’t go into it but those are some stories. Your killing me!!! You made St Joseph Zeppole??? 😩😩😩😩. No snow here but dang is it windy! Raining. Going to make a chicky soup today. Linguina doesn’t like it. She is making your stuffed peppers today. I hope you have a wonderful day. Hi to the pups and of course our best to the family. TY again for responding we are thrilled that you do. Linguina sends her love as do I. Ciao ciao. 👩🍳🇮🇹🌸🥰❤️
@@maureencolangelo7571 good morning Maureen, How are you and Linguina doing? I missed her messages :( Sometimes too many come in at once and get lost in the mix. Well 17 aunts and uncles there must be some good and bad stories. Lol I’m one of 5 so I know. 😂 sending you lots of love! 💖💖💖💖
@@alessandrasfoodislove hi Chef…..sorry I’m sending this so late. TY TY TY for remembering our bd. That was the nicest message. It was a good day. Unfortunately we did not have any cake. 😩☹️🤬. But that’s ok we will at some point. I made Chinese and we watched football. My daughter in-law had Covid then my son got it so I didn’t want to risk seeing him. But they are fine now. We are anxiously awaiting another great recipe bc we know that it will be. Haven’t seen a bad one yet. We were watching an interview from Positano last nite and the girl mentioned your town. Linguina yells out “that’s where Alessandra comes from”. I almost fell off the couch. Too funny. I have to get the name of the town my grandmother was from..it’s in Avellino. Anyway I’m yacking away sorry. So again TY from the bottom of my heart you made our day very special. Our best to the family and of course the puppies. ❤️🇮🇹🌸😘🐾👩🍳💕👏
Looks Delicious! I have been really enjoying all of your videos! I’ll definitely have to give this a try I think my family will love it. I love the presentation of your video. You make it look easy! I also make cooking videos for UA-cam. I love to learn from talented creators like you!
Hi Alessandra, do you think is ok to make the cake one day ahead? I am afraid that the whipped cream won’t keep its shape. Thank you for your great video recipes.
Dear Chiara, The whipped cream should hold without a problem. Otherwise, you could assemble the cake and just add the whip cream before serving. The cake does taste better a day later, because the sponge soaks up all the simple syrup. Let me know how it turns out. Don’t to drain the ricotta overnight. 💕💕💕thank you for watching
I made this cake once before and everyone loved it ( I can’t eat it because I am celiac!)but I used Swiss buttercream instead because I was afraid to use the whipped cream for the cake I needed for the next day. I will give it a try and let you know. Thank you again
Hello Lynn, Yes, in cupcake molds work too. Make sure you wet them nicely once cooled. I’ll be making a video on smaller pastries soon. Thank you so much for watching. 💚🤍♥️💖
Hello Robert, For a large 12 inch pan I would double up the recipe. Is it a springform with tall sides? Make sure you cut the parchment paper about 3 inches over the sides sticking up. Thank you for watching. If you have any questions I’m a message away.
@@alessandrasfoodislove Thank you! The pan is not a springform style so I believe I will need to grease and use parchment paper on the bottom as well. I will keep you informed as to how it turns out.
Thank you for watching. Not more than 2 days. What can also be done is to assemble it all and just add whip cream before serving. The simple syrup needs to soak in the pan di Spagna so a day before makes it even tastier.
Thank you for watching. The recipe is in the bottom part of the video. You can also print at www.Alessandrasfoodislove.com please if you have any questions I’m a message away.
Hi Lynn, It certainly can. Not sure if it will be very high because of the size. You can add more eggs. Let me give you the larger measurements. Thank you always for watching 💖
Maybe even a 9x9?? That would probably give it extra height. I don’t have a springform pan and hate to get one which I probably wouldn’t use it much. Love your videos so much. Definitely going to make your limoncello when I’m able to get a nice batch of lemons!
@@lynncapella3837 thank you so much! ♥️ I just measured the 9 spring form into a 9 by 9. It’s too small. I would do the 9 by 13 and add an extra egg but leave the flour and sugar measurements the same. Thank you for your beautiful words. Sure makes me happy. 💖
@@alessandrasfoodislove it turned out delicious! My husband said, it taste like I purchased it at a bakery! Making it for New Years too! Thanks for sharing your recipe!
Never in my life have I endured such horrible diarrhea and vomiting from ricotta. You have grossly mislead me, when I knew it was fact that ricotta turns to spoilage fast after two hours on the counter to drain. Be more careful
Dear Sharon, I’m so very sorry. 🥲 hope you’re feeling better. I drain the ricotta in the fridge overnight. I should’ve been more clear in explaining that the ricotta should in in the fridge at all times including once the cake is assembled. Sending you love and prayers for speedy recovery. 💕
Dear Tommy, What a beautiful cake you made. Thank you so much for emailing me the picture! Wish there was a way to share it here on UA-cam. Let’s keep cooking together to pass on our beautiful recipes and traditions. 💖💚🤍♥️
I am Sicilian Heritage and tomorrow is my sons 22nd Birthday. I usually make him Cannolis but this year....starting today I'm going to make him this cake! Thank you!

You made St Joseph Zeppole??? 😩😩😩😩. No snow here but dang is it windy! Raining. Going to make a chicky soup today. Linguina doesn’t like it. She is making your stuffed peppers today. I hope you have a wonderful day. Hi to the pups and of course our best to the family. TY again for responding we are thrilled that you do. Linguina sends her love as do I. Ciao ciao. 👩🍳🇮🇹🌸🥰❤️
@@maureencolangelo7571 good morning Maureen,
How are you and Linguina doing? I missed her messages :(
Sometimes too many come in at once and get lost in the mix.
Well 17 aunts and uncles there must be some good and bad stories. Lol
I’m one of 5 so I know. 😂 sending you lots of love! 💖💖💖💖
Happy birthday to you! 🎂🎉🎉hope you had an amazing day! 💖💖
@@alessandrasfoodislove hi Chef…..sorry I’m sending this so late. TY TY TY for remembering our bd. That was the nicest message. It was a good day. Unfortunately we did not have any cake. 😩☹️🤬. But that’s ok we will at some point. I made Chinese and we watched football. My daughter in-law had Covid then my son got it so I didn’t want to risk seeing him. But they are fine now. We are anxiously awaiting another great recipe bc we know that it will be. Haven’t seen a bad one yet. We were watching an interview from Positano last nite and the girl mentioned your town. Linguina yells out “that’s where Alessandra comes from”. I almost fell off the couch. Too funny. I have to get the name of the town my grandmother was from..it’s in Avellino. Anyway I’m yacking away sorry. So again TY from the bottom of my heart you made our day very special. Our best to the family and of course the puppies. ❤️🇮🇹🌸😘🐾👩🍳💕👏

Thank you so much! It truly is a delicious cake. 💖hope you’ll make it.
I just put my cake in the oven. Fingers crossed it comes out good.
Hello Vicki,
How is it going? I’m sure it will be delicious! If you have any questions I’m just a message away.
I love your videos!! Can you do a frittata? Everytime I make them I'm not thrilled...Thank you!! 🥰
Thank you so much. 💖 I have a spaghetti frittata and will be doing a potato frittata soon. 💖 what kind of frittate would you like?
@@alessandrasfoodislove Maybe an artichoke or spinach frittata? Thank you so much!!
@@vincenza2319 I sure well! 💖
Looks Delicious! I have been really enjoying all of your videos! I’ll definitely have to give this a try I think my family will love it. I love the presentation of your video. You make it look easy! I also make cooking videos for UA-cam. I love to learn from talented creators like you!
Looks delicious!
Beautiful!!🍰
Can I use DiSoronno liquer?
Yes, I love di Saronno too. 💖💖
For the whip cream frosting should you use a stabilizer to make the cream stand up longer?
Thank you for watching. You certainly can, I usually don’t and it holds up fine.
Another great recipe, good job Alessandra!!! What size cake pan did you use?
What cake pan did you use?
Do you make pizza gana or pizza rustica for easter??? Id love to see that made?? Grazia tanto!!
Ciao Marisa,
I made the video recipe on it. Let me send you the link. Thank you so much for watching

Hi Alessandra, do you think is ok to make the cake one day ahead? I am afraid that the whipped cream won’t keep its shape. Thank you for your great video recipes.
Dear Chiara,
The whipped cream should hold without a problem. Otherwise, you could assemble the cake and just add the whip cream before serving. The cake does taste better a day later, because the sponge soaks up all the simple syrup.
Let me know how it turns out. Don’t to drain the ricotta overnight.
💕💕💕thank you for watching
@@alessandrasfoodislove❤
I made this cake once before and everyone loved it ( I can’t eat it because I am celiac!)but I used Swiss buttercream instead because I was afraid to use the whipped cream for the cake I needed for the next day. I will give it a try and let you know. Thank you again
@@chiarascerrato9957 you can try replacing the flour with potato starch but I think you would need less syrup. Thank you so much for following 💕
ALESSANDRA!🇺🇸🇮🇹🇺🇸🇮🇹
Grazie sempre! 🇮🇹🇺🇸💖
Does this have to be made in a springform pan? Would like to try this as cupcakes.
Hello Lynn,
Yes, in cupcake molds work too. Make sure you wet them nicely once cooled.
I’ll be making a video on smaller pastries soon. Thank you so much for watching. 💚🤍♥️💖
How can I adapt this recipe for a 12" pan? I have a large party to plan for in May. Thank you.
Hello Robert,
For a large 12 inch pan I would double up the recipe. Is it a springform with tall sides? Make sure you cut the parchment paper about 3 inches over the sides sticking up. Thank you for watching. If you have any questions I’m a message away.
@@alessandrasfoodislove Thank you! The pan is not a springform style so I believe I will need to grease and use parchment paper on the bottom as well. I will keep you informed as to how it turns out.
@@robertbonfiglio1339 definitely use parchment paper. I grease the pan before attaching so it sticks well.
How many days ahead can you make this? Will the whip cream layer get runny?
Thank you for watching. Not more than 2 days. What can also be done is to assemble it all and just add whip cream before serving.
The simple syrup needs to soak in the pan di Spagna so a day before makes it even tastier.
Thank you!
You’re the bomb!!!
Did you add vanilla for the cake batter I see it on the recipe but not the video
About how long do you mix the eggs and sugar
Depends on the power of your mixer.. Needs to triple in size. Sorry just to have missed your message! Thank you for your support!
How can I adapt this recipe? Thanks!
Thank you for watching. The recipe is in the bottom part of the video. You can also print at www.Alessandrasfoodislove.com please if you have any questions I’m
a message away.
Could this be made in a 13x9 cake pan?
Hi Lynn,
It certainly can. Not sure if it will be very high because of the size. You can add more eggs. Let me give you the larger measurements.
Thank you always for watching 💖
Maybe even a 9x9?? That would probably give it extra height. I don’t have a springform pan and hate to get one which I probably wouldn’t use it much. Love your videos so much. Definitely going to make your limoncello when I’m able to get a nice batch of lemons!
@@lynncapella3837 thank you so much! ♥️ I just measured the 9 spring form into a 9 by 9. It’s too small. I would do the 9 by 13 and add an extra egg but leave the flour and sugar measurements the same. Thank you for your beautiful words. Sure makes me happy. 💖
I would love to make this for a holiday party I am going to. Is the liquor too strong. Can kids eat this?
Hi Raquel,
Perfect party cake. It’s not strong at all. You can maybe add less of it. Let me know how turns out! Buon Natale 🎁💫🎄
@@alessandrasfoodislove it turned out delicious! My husband said, it taste like I purchased it at a bakery! Making it for New Years too! Thanks for sharing your recipe!
@@Rachel_Heart_7 you just made me so so happy. Happy new year to you and family! 💕🎆
@@alessandrasfoodislove Happy New Year!
you may not be a baker but you need your own bakery. hooooly 😭
This cake is so delicious! A must try! 💖💖💖 thank you always for your beautiful words. Love you 😍
I did the ingredients exactly as you said but my cake mixture came out so thick more like I was going to make Cookies…
Did it rise properly in the oven? If like cookies it’s too thick.
Weight measurement or cups. It’s so tricky baking with cup measurements.
Let me know if I can help. Thank you for watching
@@alessandrasfoodislove I did exactly what your recipe called for, wasn’t complicated just didn’t turn out…. Trying to save others time and money!
@@joegenna1955 I understand.
Never in my life have I endured such horrible diarrhea and vomiting from ricotta. You have grossly mislead me, when I knew it was fact that ricotta turns to spoilage fast after two hours on the counter to drain. Be more careful
Dear Sharon,
I’m so very sorry. 🥲 hope you’re feeling better. I drain the ricotta in the fridge overnight. I should’ve been more clear in explaining that the ricotta should in in the fridge at all times including once the cake is assembled. Sending you love and prayers for speedy recovery. 💕
OK did this and boy it's good, Thank you. I did send a pic to your email. Keep up the great work love your videos.
Dear Tommy,
What a beautiful cake you made. Thank you so much for emailing me the picture! Wish there was a way to share it here on UA-cam.
Let’s keep cooking together to pass on our beautiful recipes and traditions. 💖💚🤍♥️
