Cementing a history…

Dolceria del Corso was founded in 1984 with little more than skilled hands and a passion for exceptional food. Over the years, we have grown, evolved, and cemented our place in Volterra as the town’s oldest pasticceria. Yet one thing has remained unchanged: our unwavering dedication to excellence, preserving the rich culinary traditions of Tuscany.

Following in the footsteps of our grandparents, we remain deeply rooted in our community and culture, while sharing the authentic flavors of Tuscany far beyond Volterra — across Italy and even to France, Germany, and Great Britain. With passion, precision, and professionalism, we ensure every customer experiences the exquisite taste of Tuscany in each and every bite.

The past

Founded in 1984 by Giancarlo and Fabiola Giovannini, Dolceria del Corso began as a pastry shop and grew into a full café with a tea room. Rooted in community and tradition, yet driven by creativity, it delivers the finest Tuscan pastries and cakes — a perfect blend of heritage and innovation.

The present

For over 35 years, Dolceria del Corso has led the way in Tuscan pastries and cakes — from Volterra to Rome, Milan, and beyond, including France, Germany, and Great Britain. Famous for wedding cakes and innovative creations, we remain deeply rooted in our community and Tuscan tradition.
