In Italy each region has its own typical Carnevale pastries, but all of them have one thing in common: they are all fried seasonal treats and they come from the Roman frictilia, deep-fried pastries prepared during ancient spring festivals. In the Veneto region, the special pastries called crostoli, galani and frittelle are served in pastry-shops, bakeries and cafés. The crostoli are thin dough strips fried and dusted with confectioners’ sugar, while the frittelle are similar to small doughnuts. In other regions, they have an endless variety of names: they are bugie (Piemonte), chiacchiere (Lombardia, Puglia, Campania and other regions), frappe (Emilia and central Italy), fiocchetti (Romagna), cenci and struffoli (Tuscany), sprelle (central Italy), meraviglie (Sardegna) and many other variations.
