Depending on your readership, and as the term isn't that well known even among educated diners, I'd put use "fiorelli" with "flower-shaped pasta" in brackets.

Example sentence:
Delicately shaped Fiorelli pasta soaks up the rustic Italian flavours of tomato and basil
Fiorelli: Fine, silky free range egg pasta, filled with creamy ricotta cheese, red onion and goats cheese.
