Designed for sharing, it’s as sculptural as it is delicious, earning its place among the finest traditional tiramisu options in Cancún.
Pistachio Panna Cotta: Pale Green Elegance
Inspired by the flavors of Piedmont, our pistachio panna cotta dessert surprises with its airy texture and aromatic layers. Made with vanilla bean–infused cream, topped with pistachio foam, lemon zest, and a delicate meringue, it pays homage to lightness, natural beauty, and subtlety. Caramelized almonds add the perfect crunchy contrast to this refined delight.
Tenerina Cake: Pure Intensity in Every Bite

At Nicoletta, it’s served with artisanal pistachio gelato, Frangelico liqueur sauce, and chopped pistachios, creating harmony between warm and cool, dense and delicate. It’s ideal for those who crave bold flavor in a balanced and elegant form.

Creamy vanilla gelato meets a bold espresso—here featuring a special caramel NESPRESSO® blend—for a contrast that awakens the senses. It’s the perfect finale for a lunch or dinner marked by refinement.
Pizza Fritta alla Nutella®: A Shared Indulgence
