Forget the hustle and bustle of the city center: the real magic happens in Guidonia, at Via delle Calle 24. Here, Pasticceria Lepori offers its famous pastries shaped and flavored like fruit.
Realistic fruit has become world-famous thanks to the creations of pastry chef Grolet in Paris. People wait in line for hours to taste one of his creations…
Realistic fruit near Rome
Near Rome, however, you can savor the creations of Lepori. Theirs is a dessert lounge where you can also enjoy an aperitif. The enchantment of realistic fruit amazes the palate; these are haute patisserie creations that replicate the appearance of fresh fruit but conceal within them bursts of flavor and refined textures. A product that is “visually beautiful” and hides a sweet filling.
Among the flavors offered are tiramisu, bacio, peanut, lemon, mango, apple, raspberry, and strawberry. The cost? About €6.50 per dessert. The filling is a semifreddo with fruit compote.
Cookies (including lactose-free and vegan options)
In addition to classic pastries, the bakery aims to win over the palates of younger customers (and others) with its famous cookies. What makes them special? They’ve thought of everyone, creating a vegan and lactose-free line that doesn’t compromise on flavor. You can create your own 6-piece box of your choice (€12.90) with raspberry, chocolate, lemon, whole wheat, and rum and pear flavors.
Crumble cookies for those without lactose intolerance are available in K. Bueno, Choco Duo, coconut, pistachio, cereal, and many other flavors. A box of 6 costs about €25.

The added value is the owner, described by customers as a super-welcoming person, capable of transforming a simple purchase into a moment of family warmth. “Our mission is to transform simple ingredients into something unique, authentic, and special.”
