I would like to try these stuffed with whipped cream and custard mixed, with fresh berries or fruit finely chopped and mixed through.They can be made by wrapping sweet pastry around a canaloni shell and deep frying.Then removing the canaloni shell.Anyone done these before?

You mean cannoli - the Italian dessert version of canneloni - the pasta. I have only ever made them on some metal moulds that are specially for making them - but in theory your version using the pasta shells could work - have you Googled it for tips? FWIW they were a fiddle to make, but yummy - if you want to cheat you can buy the proper pre-made cannoli shells at specialty Mediterranean food places if you are in one of the main centres

Thanks sarahj1 Yes I have tried the pre-made shells which is why I would now like to make them.I have found info on how to do this but was wondering if anyone had used the normal pasta shells to do this.I spose I should just give it a whirl. :)Will report back.Thx again :)
