Delicious homemade biscotti made with the finest ingredients

📣 Announcement 📣

We wish to provide an important update regarding our online operations for the remainder of the current holiday season.
To streamline your shopping experience and clearly differentiate our available inventory, please note that certain product hyperlinks (mentioned below) and in specific menu categories on our website have been temporarily deactivated & hidden from viewing. This modification has been implemented to exclusively feature items that are currently available to order in the “In-store Only” category, ensuring focus on our local walk-ins to pick up. We have ample holiday offerings for now but don’t delay because our shelves empty fast.
Our complete online catalog and full ordering functionalities are scheduled to be fully restored and operational with the resumption of our standard business calendar for the 2026 year. We appreciate your understanding and patience during this interim period and look forward to serving you with our full range of products soon.

🌲Buon Natale!❄️
As the magical glow of the holiday season begins to twinkle, and the air fills with the promise of festive cheer, we at our bakery are thrilled to unveil a collection of time-honored traditions and captivating new flavors, each meticulously handcrafted with passion and a touch of family history. We warmly invite you to immerse yourselves in the comforting warmth and exquisite tastes of the holidays, brought to life through our special seasonal offerings.

**The Exquisite Cuccidati: A Holiday Masterpiece Returns!**

Prepare to elevate your holiday dessert table with our much-anticipated Cuccidati cookies, a true testament to Sicilian pastry artistry. Revered by connoisseurs, these intricate fig-filled delights are a holiday tradition that simply can't be missed. As 'The Baker’s Wife' affectionately calls them, they are "The Gucci of Fig Newtons" – and one bite will reveal why. Each delicate cookie encases a rich, spiced fig filling, meticulously prepared and adorned. We will be baking these exquisite Christmas Specials only until the end of December. Presented in our signature gift boxes, these highly sought-after treats are available on a first-come, first-served basis while supplies last. Don't miss your opportunity to savor this iconic festive treat!

**Our Famous Panettone: A Taste of Italian Christmas**

No holiday season is complete without our renowned fresh-baked Panettone, a true Italian culinary icon. Crafted with the finest ingredients and baked to golden perfection, these airy, dome-shaped sweet breads are a staple of festive celebrations. This year, we're delighted to offer two exceptional choices: our highly coveted "Triple P," embodying the cherished Traditional favorite with candied fruits and raisins, and our "Rich & Buttery" traditional version for those who adore a more decadent, melt-in-your-mouth experience. Due to their exceptional popularity and limited production this season, we kindly inform you that all Panettone are sold as available; we are unable to hold or reserve orders. Secure yours early to guarantee this delightful addition to your holiday spread. You may conveniently purchase online here or visit us at our local bakery store.

**Discover Our Renowned Meat Ravioli: A Family Favorite**

Beyond our sweet indulgences, we invite you to experience the heartiness of our famous Meat Ravioli. Perfect for family gatherings or a comforting weeknight meal, these artisanal ravioli are sold in generous one-pound boxes, containing 48 pieces (a true family size!). Each pasta parcel is generously filled with a premium blend of savory veal and beef, fresh Swiss chard, fragrant parsley, and the perfect combination of Parmigiano and Romano cheeses, seasoned with just salt and pepper – absolutely no breadcrumbs, ensuring a pure, rich flavor. These are available on a first-come, first-served basis, while supplies last. Be sure to stock up your freezer and don't forget to pair them with a jar of our delectable dell’Amore sauce for a truly authentic Italian meal.

These highly anticipated delights will be available on a first-come, first-served basis (no orders), with limited quantities baked fresh for the morning. Be sure to arrive early to savor yours while it's hot!

Unfortunately, due to the very high volume and operational demands during this busy holiday season, we are unable to hold any orders or accept pre-payments. Our back counter space is fully utilized for focacce and managing current pick-ups, as our team is working diligently to ensure a smooth experience for all our customers.

**Looking Ahead: Our Famous EASTER PIE 🥧 Pastiera**

While the current holidays are upon us, we wanted to give you an early heads-up about a beloved annual tradition. Each year, we meticulously prepare our famous Easter Pie, known as Pastiera, a sweet ricotta and grain pie synonymous with springtime celebrations. Please note that online orders for this delectable pie are taken annually for in-store pickup exclusively on the Saturday preceding Easter Sunday. Plan ahead to secure this unique seasonal treat next year!

**In-Store Payment Policy**
We want to inform you of an important update regarding our payment policies, designed to help us continue providing the exceptional quality and value you’ve come to expect from our gourmet treats.

In light of the current economic climate, including significant increases in the cost of premium ingredients, operational expenses, and supply chain tariffs, we are proactively seeking ways to manage these rising pressures without compromising on the excellence of our products.

A considerable portion of our operational costs stems from the transaction fees associated with digital payment processing. To mitigate these expenses and allow us to maintain our current pricing structure, we are kindly encouraging our customers to consider making purchases with cash whenever feasible.

While we will continue to accept credit card payments for your convenience, please be informed that a modest transaction fee will now be applied to all card-based purchases to help offset these third-party processing charges. Opting for cash payments directly assists us in reducing these overheads, which in turn enables us to keep our prices stable and accessible for everyone.

We sincerely appreciate your understanding and continued loyalty as we adapt to these market changes. We are committed to serving you the finest treats and look forward to your next visit.

**Important Dates for Your Holiday Planning:**
To ensure your festive season is graced with our exceptional treats, please mark these crucial dates:

**Online Shipping Deadline:** For all shipped orders, please ensure your purchase is completed by the **end of November**. We unfortunately will not be able to process or ship orders placed after this date.*

**Online Cart Closure:** Our online ordering platform will remain open for *local pickup orders*, at which point it will close promptly for the season and many products will be hidden or placed in sold out mode to prevent online shopping after our bakery shop closure for the holiday season.*

**Winter Closure:** Our bakery, including both our physical storefront and our online shop, will be closed for the entirety of January 2026, from January 1st through January 31st.
This annual pause allows our team to take a well-deserved break, conduct comprehensive maintenance, and strategize exciting new offerings for the year ahead, ensuring we continue to provide you with the highest quality baked goods and an exceptional experience upon our return.
