We can safely say that visiting Sicily without eating cannoli is like not having visited it at all. For those who do not know it the Sicilian is a dessert consisting of a crunchy fried wafer in lard, called “scorza“ (rind), filled with sheep’s cream with a sprinkling of chocolate or pistachio and candied fruit at both ends.

In an ancient land dominated by thousands of cultures such as Sicily it is very difficult to find the historical origins of its heritage and everything get lost in fascinating mysteries that become pleasant topics for discussion. There are many legends that tell the origins of the Sicilian cannoli but no absolute confirmations. We at decided to list all of them so that you can decide to believe what you like the most, check it on our website and let us know which one you have decided to believe!

The Day of the Dead, or 'Festa dei Morti' in Sicily, is a deeply rooted tradition that dates back centuries. It is a day when Sicilians gather to honor and remember their deceased loved ones, offering prayers, visiting cemeteries, and sharing food with family and friends.

This unique tradition has its origins in a blend of Roman Catholic beliefs, ancient Roman customs, and local folklore. In the Catholic calendar, All Saints' Day (November 1st) and All Souls' Day (November 2nd) are dedicated to honoring the saints and remembering the souls of the departed. Sicily, with its rich history of religious and cultural influences, added its own distinctive twist to these observances: on the Day of the Dead, Sicilian families prepare 'cuddureddi,' special sweet bread shaped like bones, and 'frutta martorana,' marzipan fruit in bright colors, to offer at the gravesites.

After our participation in DiVino Wine & Hospitaly Travel, we can say that in the tourism sector, food and wine is taking more and more space every day. Our intention will be to push this market more and more, which we certainly find very interesting, especially in Sicily. A marketplace that is constantly evolving and that today counts with more than 400 wineries. We are confident that in collaboration with our partners in the area, we will be able to give the visibility that this type of tourism deserves.

During the round table, the concept of sustainability was reiterated on several occasions, and what sustainability means to JustSicily: A type of travel characterised by more ecological and sustainable experiences, respectful of places and indigenous populations. Our business is in fact mainly web-based, allowing us to reduce the consumption of paper, inks and other potentially polluting materials. We choose our suppliers carefully and prefer partners who, like us, care about saving the planet in order to provide our travellers with experiences with a lower environmental impact.

We would like to thank Nebe for the splendid organisation of these three unique days together with colleagues and buyers. We look forward to being with you again.

🌅 JustSicily was very pleased to participate in the event organised by Cantine Pellegrino to discover Marsala and its territory. Cantine Pellegrino do not want to deal only with wine - reaffirming in any case the uniqueness of Marsala wine - but they want to revive the territory as a whole, sharing its history, customs and typicality.

🍇 We went to discover the Salina Genna and the Punic Ship of Marsala, then to Ouverture Pellegrino for the new wine tourism proposals. We walked through barrels, barriques and ancient vats that preserve Marsala wine, ending with an evocative dinner in the historic cellars with the cuisine of Casa Pellegrino. A wonderful day of flavours and beauty in the land of Sicily!
