licia, I didn't make the shells, I just made the filling I had already made shells, my daughter brought me. I do want to make my own, the filling tastes great and I want to now try making the shells as well, thye have to be better than the ones I have.licia said:Kadesma, let me know how your cannoli turns out. I bought some forms but haven't used them. Right after, I saw someone on tv make them using forms made from foil.
