The tradition of I dolci dei Morti or “Sweets of the Dead” in Sicily and other parts of Italy is observed during the festivities of All Saints’ Day and the commemoration of the deceased on November 1st and 2nd.
These two days are marked by the preparation and offering of dolci dei morti, encompassing various recipes and variations of cookies, pastries, nougats, and other treats that are either prepared at home or purchased from bakeries to be gifted to relatives and children.
