About

Busy Bee is a Maltese staple with a storied history that dates back to 1933 when founder Censu Friggieri opened a small confectionery in Msida. Over the past nine decades the family‑run business has evolved into a bustling catering company, gelateria and coffee shop network that spans the island. Visitors can enjoy the traditional ricotta‑filled kannoli and almond pastries that first launched the brand, as well as an ever‑expanding menu of cakes, sandwiches, cold platters and fresh baked goods. A signature highlight is the gelateria, where 45 distinct flavours of authentic Maltese gelato, fresh pancakes and waffles are served in a warm, family‑friendly setting.
