Bella Napoli

It’s been awhile but I had to make a pit stop into the best little Italian pastry shop. The store itself is a stand-along building located on the corner of busy intersection which mimics the feel you get when you enter the premise. There are cases filled, and I mean filled, with every kind of sweet imaginable. For those who tend to have American taste – there is the case that offers donuts, cookies, breakfast cake and bread. But where I stand in wonder, is in front of the display case with Italian goodies: almond horns, canoli, chocolate covered canoli, biscotti, cream filled pastries with the pasta fragla dough, ricotta filled cakes and the list goes on. I can never enter and order just one thing. It is inevitable that I will leave with a large box closed and bound tightly t with a lot of deli string. The best is when you arrive home to the happy exclamation of “oooh, what did you get?!” The second round of fun entails placing the assortment on a pretty dish and sitting outside on the porch, sharing all the yummy treasures.
