The Cozy Cannoli


Located at 2701 Kirkwood Street in High Point, The Cozy Cannoli offers Italian-inspired cannoli, pastries, cookies and other baked goods as well as coffee drinks Tuesday through Sunday. Custom cakes are available, and the bakery offers a loyalty program as well as regular specials.

Owned and operated by a mother-daughter team, The Cozy Cannoli is a charming spot filled with delectable-looking desserts. Cupcakes, buns, rolls, bars, Italian wedding cookies, and tiramisu are among the well-displayed regular stock though cannoli are, of course, the featured attraction. You’ll find traditional, chocolate, and at least one featured (think limoncello or pistachio) cream flavor on any given day. Regular-sized or mini-shells are available and filled to order, so you know what you’re getting is fresh. They are best consumed quickly as the longer they sit, the more likely they are to get soggy.



At their peak, the cannoli here rate as good, especially for the area. The fillings aren’t one-note sweet, and the shells are crisp and flaky as they should be. For their part, the cannoli cupcakes taste like the real thing and are a steal on Friday BOGO deals. That said, I would hesitate to put The Cozy Cannoli’s offerings up against what I can find in New Jersey, but then again, my home state is a long way away. The Cozy Cannoli’s staff are usually friendly and patient as well.

A welcoming spot for tasty treats, The Cozy Cannoli is one of High Point’s better dessert destinations.
