March in Turin means spring, more light hours, warmer temperatures and rains. Just like in other parts of Italy, here too the International Women's Day, celebrated on March 8th still marks the local calendars together with mimosa flowers in the streets.

We celebrated the arrival of March in company of our friend ItalianKiwi and for the occasion we picked what might just be one of the best possible places for cakes in Turin: Clarissa!!
