Dynamite Sticks return for a limited time at the Bean Counter
WORCESTER — A beloved treat from a closed Worcester bakery is making a limited-time comeback.
Wholly Cannoli announced on social media that its popular Dynamite Sticks have returned through a collaboration with Bean Counter Bakery at 270 Grove St. in Worcester.
The Dynamite Stick, a longtime favorite among local pastry fans, features a plain cannoli filling with caramel, dipped in chocolate and rolled in butter crunch.
The dessert gained wider recognition during Wholly Cannoli’s run after being featured on Channel 5’s “Chronicle” and the Phantom Gourmet.
“You asked. You waited. You never stopped messaging about them,” the bakery wrote in its announcement, confirming that demand from customers helped bring the dessert back.
The partnership places the Dynamite Stick in a new location but keeps the recipe intact, according to the post. Wholly Cannoli noted the offering is available for a limited time only.
Wholly Cannoli previously operated in Worcester before closing, but its signature desserts have remained popular among residents, with frequent requests for a return.
Bean Counter Bakery confirmed customers can now find the Dynamite Stick at its Grove Street location while the collaboration lasts.
