Pasticceria Ballico In Padova

Every time I return to Padua I find the same taste of the chocolate pastries I ate when I left school as a child. Pastry shop worth trying for the quality and kindness of the staff. Well done!

Small environment but with a vast assortment of sweet products, pastries, pastries, croissants etc... Very kind, friendly, above all human and professional staff, located in a very busy area near Prato della Valle and near the centre, historic pastry shop. .. I took 4 croissants, two with cream, one apricot jam and one chocolate... Let's start with the dough which is super soft but with consistency, not too sweet but very tasty... The croissant with cream has a cream super soft and dense, super tasty without being too sugary, with icing sugar on top... The chocolate croissant has 1-2 chocolate bars inside which don't melt but remain just as crunchy and tasty as they are sweet but they really taste like chocolate, with chocolate strips on top, the only flaw is that since they don't melt there seems to be little seasoning... The croissant with jam is well "seasoned" and with every bite you can taste the apricot jam which is really fresh and it really tastes like apricot jam, very tasty and not heavy, price 1.70 euros per croissant, it's worth it... I recommend it...
