traditional sicilian sweets

all the sweets have the full list of ingredients in english and italian, so it’s easy to spot the vegan options.
outside there is a beautiful courtyard where you can enjoy your sweets

A traditional place

The dolceria is hidden inside the Santa Caterina monastery. They cook sweets following ancient and traditional recipes of the nuns.
Most of sweets are only vegetarian but there are also some vegan options (all ingredients are available on their website): traditional sicilian granita and almond/pistachios-based sweets, that are something typical in this region. They are not many, but visiting the monastery is a typical touristic experience in Palermo.
Moreover you can enjoy your coffee and sweets in the beautiful cloister.
I had some "sospiri" (almond paste flavoured with orange, lemon, pistachio and coffee) and some "trifi" (covered with pistachios and chocolate).

Pros: Ancient and traditional sweets, Beautiful location

Cons: Since it's traditional, not many vegan options
