What if I don’t have Marsala wine?
Substitute with dry white wine or a mix of white vinegar and water.
How do I keep the shells from getting soggy?
Fill just before serving. Store shells and filling separately if preparing in advance.
Can I use something other than ricotta?
Yes, mascarpone cheese can be used for a richer, creamier filling.
Can I freeze cannoli shells?
Yes! Freeze unfilled, fried shells in an airtight container for up to 2 months. Let them come to room temperature before filling.
