The story
Pasticceria Raspino is a traditional pastry shop in Torino that earned a 4.4-star rating from creator Franchino Er Criminale during his *Pasticcerie criminali TORINO* series. However, his visit at 11:30 AM revealed a limited selection of pastries, forcing him to “settle for breakfast items.” Among those were a Croissant Vuoto and a Girella con Uvetta, both given a thumbs-up.
The standout was the Cannolo alla Crema (presunto Zabaglione), with Franchino praising the shell as “excellent.” Yet a service mix-up with the filling—it arrived as crema instead of the expected zabaglione—was noted as a minor flaw. Despite that hiccup, the shop’s traditional character and the quality of its core pastries left a largely positive impression.

The buttery, airy croissant vuoto earns rapturous praise as the standout, while reviewers agree the pasticceria’s warm, unpretentious charm makes every bite feel like a neighborhood secret worth savoring.
“This croissant is small, but it's good. It's soft, not flaky or dry — it's like a soft oven croissant. Good, but not exceptional.”

A good traditional pastry shop, but the selection of pastries was limited at 11:30 AM, so I had to settle for breakfast items. The cannolo shell was excellent, but the service mix-up with the filling was a minor flaw.

Girella con Uvetta
A lot of raisins, the big fat ones. It's good, but it doesn't make my eyes roll. Maybe it was a bit underbaked, while the croissant was perfectly baked.
Cannolo alla Crema (presunto Zabaglione)
The shell is very good, well made and well cooked. The zabaglione surprised me — I asked for cream but got zabaglione because the labels were facing the customers. The shell is the best part. I give it a high score.
