Description
John Zito established the shop at 69th Street and Bay Parkway using original recipes baked on premise without preservatives or trans fats. Beyond standard bakery cases of cookies and cake slices, the selection extends to authentic French brick oven baguettes. Custom birthday orders feature creations like tiramisu cake and a light strawberry cake with custard cream baked the morning of pickup, while seasonal ice cream arrives in summer.
