Opening my lunch box to see a treat waiting for me was a thrill
beyond belief. After school, I'd sneak into the cookie jar, holding
the knob tightly so it wouldn't rattle the metal lid, allowing me
to get in and out without even alerting the family dog.
As an adult, I've continued this ongoing relationship with butter
and sugar. We have quite a history together, the three of us! Creating
desserts as well as sharing them is definitely what I am meant to
do in this lifetime. I'm doing what I love. Maybe it's my Italian
heritage that plays such a part in the pleasure of knowing so many
people enjoy our desserts.
We opened our tiny little door in September of 1985 in Los Gatos,
California, with no idea that it would become such a wonderful addition
to a great community. We grew slowly over the years, and in time
expanded our wholesale business to a nearby commercial kitchen.
