Bakeries in Cittadella

Pasticceria Sole ★ 3.9

BakerycittadellaTue-Fri 07:00-14:30; Sat-Sun 07:00-12:30; Mon closedWalk-in onlySeasonal Italian pastry

Pasticceria Sole follows the calendar in Parma's Cittadella quarter: maritozzi, grape focaccia in vintage season and pandoro when the frosts come.

Tip: Ask what is seasonal rather than ordering from habit; the counter changes with the farm calendar more than any other pastry shop in Parma.

Worth the queue: Maritozzi and seasonal grape focaccia

Pasticceria Provinciali ★ 4.3

Pasticceria Provinciali traces its laboratory to 1902 and grew with Parma itself, the pastry name the UNESCO gastronomy city still sends visitors to first.

Tip: Order the mixed mignon tray; it is the shortest tour of a century of Parma pastry-making in a single box.

Worth the queue: Classic mignon tray
