A Message from Linda Karam, the senior chef
Presenting, Old World Pastries, where we hand-shape every cookie, biscuit, and cake using techniques and recipes shared by our friends and family from Sicily. It is my fervent wish that you will taste the amoré we infuse into each bite, in the privacy of your home or in the many restaurants we supply.

NOTHING tastes quite the same as authentic Italian pastry, it is artistically satisfying to sculpt the unique cakes, and while preparing the many types of dough, the inspiration comes from the heart, to form a variety of shapes. Of course, eggs, milk, flour, honey, salt, sugar, spice, and chocolate are the ingredients used in our pastries, BUT the freshness of the ingredients and handling them in different ways produces vastly different results.

Our pastries have relatively little sugar compared to modern confections, relying on blends of spicy seeds, nuts, dried fruits, wines, liquers, etc. for their flavors. If you are celebrating a very special event...if you want something extraordinary to serve with your coffee or tea, you won't be disappointed with our distinctive looking, delicate-tasting, mouth-watering sensations. Once you taste our pastries, experience the bouquet that lingers on the palate like a fine wine, or see them on display at your party or special occasion, we are sure you will agree that you have found an exceptional collection of desserts.

Buon Appetito,
     Dio ti Benedica,
