Cannoli-Bagel Hybrids

This Chocolate Chip-Infused Bagel Was Inspired by a Popular Italian Pastry

Cannolis are popular pastries that were created in Italy and are well-known around the world for their rich and semi-sweet flavors -- and this Montreal shop decided to fuse the dessert with its siganture bagels.

The cannoli bagel is offered by the Montreal-based shop 'Dizz's Bagel & Deli' and is exactly what is sounds like. The bagel itself is freshly made and contains chocolate chips, while sandwiched between it is cannoli cream cheese and the addition of a few whole chocolate chips. The bagel makes for an excellent novelty food item for people who enjoy them, or for those who would like a new "food gram" for their social media accounts.

The cannoli bagel is able to capitalize on an emerging pattern of stores, shops and bakeries offering creative, novelty food items.
