What We Offer

Cannoli

Sam offers both Sicilian and Venetian cannoli in regular or mini sizes, made completely from scratch, using only the freshest ingredients. The miniature cannoli must be ordered in advance to ensure availability. The Sicilian cannoli has a ricotta based filling with a deep fried shell. Small bits of chocolate in the ricotta filling make this a sweet yet savoury treat. Venetian cannoli have a custard cream filling in a flaky baked shell. 

The “Big Cannoli” is a specialty item offered at Sam’s Queenston Bakery. This special to order item is made available for your most special occasions! Often a conversation starter, this massive Sicilian cannoli shell is beautifully crafted and then filled with miniature or regular sized cannoli. Not only the most delicious treat at your next event but also one of the most beautiful decorations for your dessert table. Call and order this masterful one of a kind creation for your next major event!

Sam’s Queenston Bakery’s cannoli have truly become a staple dessert in the homes of many people from not only Hamilton but from around the world. It would not be uncommon to run into visitors from afar in the bakery buying treats to bring home to far away places. Sam has well known customers who come in from Niagara Falls, the GTA, Italy, Australia and the United States of America. On your next visit let us know how far you have travelled to get one of Sam’s desserts!
