cornetti

Flaky breakfast pastries

Cornetti is the plural of cornetto, an Italian crescent-shaped pastry similar to a croissant but sweeter and softer, often filled with cream, jam, or Nutella.

A staple of Italian breakfast, typically eaten with cappuccino: We grabbed cornetti and coffee at the bar before work.
