Max

With two shops (one near the airport and one in the center), pastry chef Massimo Albanese's Max has become a popular stop for citizens and tourists at any time of the day. It all comes back to an assortment of products that spans various areas (pastry, chocolate, ice cream and even coffee) and reaches outstanding levels of quality. A splendid array of foods in the morning honors the Italian breakfast ritual, from airy croissants filled with sumptuous creams (vanilla bean is delicious) to braided puff pastries with Chantilly cream and berries and plenty of other alternatives. Let yourself be tempted by captivating, well-prepared mini pastries and single-serving treats. High-quality ingredients, precision in the preparation of recipes and a keen aesthetic sense guide production, all of which is particularly evident in their cakes, which are in great demand for special occasions. Among their selection of new creations and classics, you can't miss a mainstay like the Bignolata, a creamy dessert made with coffee and mascarpone mousse, cream puffs and chocolate drops. Don't forget the pralines, holiday classics (including summer editions), dry pastries and artisanal products for the gourmet pantry, such as spreads and biscuits packed in jars.
