Before you step into Dolcemente Italia, we suggest you curb your enthusiasm in advance. A tad (it won’t hurt, really). But, say, you don’t do that. You enter the unassuming pattisserie, and your eyes take things in before your taste buds can — yoghurt and biscuit, yoghurt between biscuit, yoghurt in lollipop, yogurt in miniscule wafer cups.
