Crossandra Barcelona – Flavors that spark joy & zest

Crossandra in Barcelona is a quaint little shop with a clear focus: cannelloni and croquettes to go. Most of their cannelloni are refrigerated, with a few frozen options, but they smartly keep the bechamel sauce separate to maintain quality. Their selection includes gluten-free and lactose-free products.

They offer traditional bechamel-topped cannelloni (fillings of meat, mushrooms, seafood, duck confit... and many others!), but also venture into unconventional territory with tomato sauce (like spinach with mozzarella, or fish and seafood), pepper sauce (like cod with raisins and pine nuts), and breaded varieties (filled with vegetables, mushrooms or meat). Seasonal ingredients feature in their dishes - don't miss their truffled bechamel! -, alongside year-round staples. The range is impressive, with over 20 varieties of cannelloni and 5 different croquettes, including vegan and vegetarian options. They are available in formats of 3, 6, and 20 units.

A unique and convenient service they provide is pre-gratinate cannelloni with just a 20-minute advance call, perfect for those in tourist accommodations or working nearby. This service is only available during the weekdays.

Crossandra also has a few extras like stuffed potatoes and desserts, along with raw pasta (gluten-free), selected wines, and a handful of preserves to complete your meal.
