Frequently Asked Questions
What is a maritozzo?
A maritozzo is a Roman sweet brioche bun, oval in shape, split lengthwise and filled with whipped cream. The dough is soft and lightly sweet, closer to a brioche than to a bread roll. In Rome it is a traditional breakfast and afternoon pastry, usually served with coffee.
How do I serve the maritozzo?
Warm it in the microwave for about 40 seconds before serving. The heat reaches the outer dough while the filling stays cold, so the bun is soft and warm outside and the cream stays chilled inside. Serve right away.
Is this the classic maritozzo recipe?
The dough follows the traditional Roman brioche, oval and split lengthwise. The filling is where it differs: the classic version is filled with plain whipped cream, while this one comes with pistachio cream and chocolate cream.
