The lemon delights, or delizie al limone, are typical Italian desserts of Campania pastry you can enjoy with a spoon. They are made of soft, light sponge cakes which are filled with a creamy lemon custard. Once filled, they are soaked in a syrup of water, sugar and limoncello, and coated with a white, zesty icing.
Lemon meringue pie is as classic a dessert as they come. Made from tangy, sweet, zesty lemon filling in a buttery, flaky pie crust and topped with cloud-like sweetened meringue, each bite is a delight to the taste buds.
