Paisano’s Italian Bakery on Stickney Point Road in Sarasota. Stopped by today for the first time — not sure what took me so long to give them a try. What a great assortment of baked goodies. You’ve heard us sing the praises of Solorzano Brothers’ New Jersey Pizza on Siesta Key and their parents’ Italian Restaurant in Sarasota. Now we have an authentic Italian bakery within striking distance. I was on my way to the gym when I popped in, but just couldn’t resist ordering up a small cannoli, which was just perfect. Cannoli’s are so darn rich and packed with fat and calories, but who can resist their crunchy pastry exterior and sweet ricotta cheese filling? Not this guy — that’s for certain.
I’ve never heard of a Bachelor’s Button before — interesting name
Pour me a tall cappucino and I’m a happy man
The mighty Cannoli — the Mob Boss of all decadent desserts
I am so glad I discovered this place. I will be back and will spread the word. Owners Laurie and David Moretti (now that’s Italian!) deserve our support. Check ’em out at www.paisanosItalianBakery.com
