The Crocetta di Caltanissetta (translated as the Cross of Caltanissetta) is an old sweet produced in Caltanissetta until the end of 1908,[1] then forgotten and recently rediscovered. The Crocetta di Caltanissetta and the “Spina Sacra” (translated as the Holy Thorn) are two sweets known as the Sweets of the monastery. They used to be prepared for the Holy Crucifix festivity by the Sisters of the Benedectine Monastery. This was situated next to the Church of the Holy Cross, from which the sweets take the name.[1]
The pastry chef who rediscovered them (plus four women of the neighbourhood of the Holy Cross) only knows the recipe of these sweets.[2] The rediscovery was possible thanks to 20 years of research that began with a person living in the neighbourhood who remembered how the traditional recipe was passed from mother to daughter over time.
Beautiful church in the heart of the historic city center. A pity that is not fully exploited. Inside you can admire many examples of sacred art and very interesting relics. Very striking is the wooden relic that is said to come from the crucifixion. Recommended for everyone. Enjoy.
Nissena. Church wonder with attached monastery with galleries leading to the old cathedral, which today is the Church of San Domenico ....
Because together with the Dona association for a smile they help many families in difficulty
