A Taste of Sicily on Jefferson Avenue


March 27, 2018

Next time you happen to be on Jefferson Avenue in Miami Beach and happen to be looking for something sweet, keep an eye out for Sciuri Bakery Café. Pronounced “shuri”, you’ll find the Sicilian-themed bakery anchoring a small strip mall.

Exploring Sciuri Bakery Café, you’ll notice plenty of pastries, cakes, cookies, and other bites you’re likely to find in a bakery, in this case with a Sicilian twist plus appropriately Sicilian décor. Some of the suggestions you may wish to try include the arancini or stuffed rice balls available with a variety of fillings, fried calzone, or even ragu lasagna depending on which day of the week you visit. The ham and cheese croissants are a great “to go” bite if you’re in something of a hurry.

As for cakes, customers can purchase an entire one or go with an individually-sized one. Perhaps the most famous of these cakes is one that isn’t quite the standard definition of a cake at all. The cassata hails from Sicily’s capital Palermo and consists of a type of a non-baked sponge cake with powdered sugar and sheep’s milk ricotta plus citron peels and candied fruit.

Interested in visiting Sciuri Bakery Café? It is open every day from 7 am to 7:30 pm and its address is 541 Jefferson Avenue.
