Hi Alex, cannoli is a type of biscuit that is rolled and fried – not to be confused with cannelloni pasta sheets! You can buy cannoli from Italian cake shops and delis (and many supermarkets). Hope that helps – The DH Team.

Bit of a silly question, but is the cannelloni fresh pasta or dried? Oh yes and do you cook the pasta first and let it cool?
