Costiera Amalfitana Sfogliatelle invented in conservatorio di Santa Rosa da Lima in the 17th Century
Florence The invention of ?Gelato?, the confection based on ice, cream and egg yolk as a development of the older water-based sherbet/sorbetto has been linked to Florence during the rule of Catherine de Medici. One version is that the architect and all-round Renaissance man Bernado Buontalenti was charged by Catherine with preparing 'events' for diplomatic guests including banquets and entertainments. In 1565 one of these served a frozen dessert with a recipe approximating to modern 'Gelato'. Buontalenti Gelato is still available!
Lübeck Marzipan was invented by Johann Niederegger in 1806 (same time as in Tallinn)
