A dessert stuffed with 50 pastries and more than 20,000 CALORIES.

Pasticceria Caruso is behind the dessert, getting orders from all over the globe.

The $150 creation is all wrapped up in a custom-made cannoli pastry shell.

Comes in chocolate, vanilla, or ricotta but custom flavours are also available.

A dessert that started out as a joke for a family member put a small bakery on the map, and now brings in orders from all over the globe.

Giuseppe Caruso, the owner of Pasticceria Caruso, was just hoping to make something memorable when he created the Cannoli Bazooka.

A showstopping dessert, it features 50 individual cannoli pastries that have been wrapped up in another large cannoli shell and are all tied together with a bow.

The dessert has 1,048 calories per serving, while the entire Cannoli Bazooka clocks in at a whopping 20,960 calories

Caruso and his team created a custom large cannoli shell to hold everything together, and now offer the dessert in three standard flavours.

‘We have chocolate, vanilla, and ricotta, and we also custom-make flavours like blueberry. We’re open to creating new flavours for our customers all the time,’ he said.

To top it all off the dessert is dusted with icing sugar and then decorated to fit any occasion with flowers and ribbons.

Cannoli Bazookas have been ordered for everything from birthdays and corporate events to baby gender reveals and first communions.

‘We give new ideas to customers for their Cannoli Bazooka and like to create custom versions of it depending on what the client wants,’ Caruso said.

The standard Cannoli Bazooka costs $150, while a mini version with 20 cannoli pastries inside costs $65.

Pasticceria Caruso also offers a cannoli tower, complete with 100 cannoli, for $300.

The dessert has been a huge hit with customers, and now the bakery is doing up to 50 a week.

Since the dessert has gone viral, Pasticceria Caruso has had orders from all over the globe.

Caruso said it was a huge hit in New Jersey, where one man said he would pay for shipping so he could get his hands on the Cannoli Bazooka.

Birthday girl!

She became a mum for the first time late last year after welcoming daughter Layla Rose. And Laura Csortan made sure no expense was spared as she put on a lavish bash to celebrate her baby’s first birthday on Sunday.

Birthday girl! Laura Csortan made sure no expense was spared as she put on a lavish bash to celebrate her daughter Layla Rose’s first birthday on Sunday.

The 41-year-old model and presenter- who has chosen to raise her child on her own- held the party at the trendy Gazebo Wine Bar Bar in Sydney’s ritzy Elizabeth Bay.

Taking to Instagram, Laura shared a happy snap that showed her adorable girl sitting safely in her lap.

The stunner wore a floral top and left her blonde locks out, while she dressed her cherubic child in a cute polka dot jumpsuit.

‘Now that was a party! Happy first little Layla with all your amazing Sydney peeps” the former Great Outdoors host captioned.

She continued: ‘Huge thanks to Gazebo Sydney perfect venue and ohhh my god the food!!’

Laura also made sure to credit the patisserie who made the sensational o unicorn cake which was seen taking pride of place in her photograph.

The beauty wrote: ‘And about that cake! Pasticceria Caruso made the most perfect unicorn. sensation!’

The cake seems to be the must-have birthday treat for celebrity offspring, with WAG Kyly Clarke also opting for a similar confection for her own daughter’s recent birthday.

Talented Kyly was seen festooning the cake with treats ahead of her tot Kelsey-Lee’s second birthday a fortnight ago.

Meanwhile, in July this year, Laura lashed out on Instagram over ‘heartbreaking accusations’ by The Sunday Telegraph that she was ‘dating’ Anthony Bell.

She claimed the publication also insinuated that the celebrity accountant is the father of her daughter.

The former Miss World Australia has not disclosed the identity of Layla Rose’s dad, and is seemingly relishing her life as an empowered single mum.

But there’s no shame in taking a few sneaky shortcuts when you physically don’t have time to do it all, and the clever mum has a great one.

Taking to Instagram earlier this week, the WAG uploaded a time-lapse video of herself madly decorating a unicorn-themed birthday cake for daughter Kelsey-Lee’s second birthday.

In the video, Kyly can be seen adding an assortment of brightly-coloured edible flair to the pastel-tinged cake.

“Having my own Cake Boss moment!!’ she writes in the caption.

“So much fun creating this cute unicorn-inspired master piece with the team @pasticceria_caruso @_lyfestyled_ #kylyskitchen.”

Review – Pasticceria Caruso

MEDIA: LiveJournal, Missdissent

Link: https://missdissent.livejournal.com/716535.html

If I’m honest, Pasticceria Caruso, is the type of business I’d usually walk right by. Set in a kiosk in the middle of Stockland Wetherill Park, it is surrounded by big chains, like Bakers Delight and Coles, making it all too easy to assume it’s something akin to Michel’s PatisseriePasticceria Caruso is actually quite a lot more than than that. It’s a small business owned by Giuseppe “Pino” Caruso, and is touted as having the best Italian cakes in the West.

The bazooka cannoli is simply a weapon. There are profiteroles inside the beast.

The more the merrier but when your party hits critical mass, Giuseppe Caruso has a sweet solution: the mighty Bazooka – a large crispy cannoli shell loaded with 50-mini ones. A Sicilian favourite, these ‘little tubes’ of fried pastry dough are filled with rich cream and for this giant version, Giuseppe has opted for a selection of ricotta, vanilla, chocolate, and for added sugar, included profiteroles in the centre of the shell. For those who prefer more intimate engagements, there’s also a smaller version. At their nearby commercial bakery, Giuseppe’s crew also make some impressive specialty cakes and other pastries. — Pasticceria Caruso, Kiosk 7, Stockland Mall
