I love the fact that you can find items from anywhere across the country. I live in Texas and a lot of the things I love from growing up in CT and NY they just don't have here or the quality is not good. Honestly, everything was great of the things I have ordered.

"My husband, a native New Yorker, was delighted! Seems they just don't make those pastries right in western rural Pennsylvania! In addition, when he lived in NYC, Ferrara's was actually the bakery he used to visit! The pastries are just as he remembered, and he enjoyed them very much!"

The cheesecake, tiramisu, and chocolate cake were all spectacular - simple ingredients, done the right way. A bit pricey but it seems all of the ingredients is good stuff - and these days a lot of stuff is poor-quality. If you want a consistently excellent bakery, Ferrara Bakery is a good choice - and that’s based on a number of orders I’ve placed over a number of years.

I am in seventh heaven. I ordered strufoli (honey balls) and pignoli (pine nut) cookies, from Ferrara's in NYC. It's two of the desserts my mother used to make when I was a child and a taste of old times is a good experience. They both were almost exactly what she made. Good service, received them exactly when promised. They were shipped well packed, saran wrapped tightly, so no broken cookies or messy strufoli.

I have been ordering from Ferrara's for more than twenty years. Probably will never stop - getting good Italian desserts is impossible in the South....................but even when I lived in NJ, I would order since is was easier and more convenient to order than to make a trip into NYC!

Oh my gosh, these Sfogliatellas are amazing. Without a doubt, all I can say is these are probably the best I have ever had in my 86 years. After baking them for 30 to 40 minutes, they come out with a beautiful slightly crispy crust and filled with delectable filling. I wish I could take them with me when I pass from this earth.
