Egidio Pastry Shop

Came back after many years during my recent Fordham reunion weekend. Still outstanding! Cannoli, cookies, cake, coffee, all wonderful. My favorite. So glad that I was able to come back for a visit, and a box of pastries to go for my family back in Colorado.

I recently left another review but after having taste another cassata cake I now know what they’re supposed to taste like. I asked if they knew how to make a cake in a certain style I wanted & I received something completely different also the sponge cake was really dryer. If you knew you weren’t able to have done it I feel like that should’ve been communicated to me & I would’ve went elsewhere. The cannoli cream is 10/10 though will recommend that. Here is the pics of what I asked for & what I got.

#throwback2019 Right along East 187th Street, in the heart of Arthur Avenue Little Italy, sits Egidio Pastry Shop, quietly continuing a century long mission of destroying self control. Established in 1912, this place has been outlasting trends, diets, and probably a few family arguments. Walking in feels like stepping into a time capsule, except everything smells like butter, sugar, and zero self restraint. Came in for “just one pastry.” That was the first lie. Cannoli was the gateway, crisp shell, rich filling, dangerously good. Then your eyes wander. Suddenly you’re emotionally invested in éclairs, cream puffs, and at least three items you can’t pronounce but fully trust. No flashy decor, no gimmicks. Just generations of people perfecting the art of ruining your discipline in the most delicious way possible. Bronx Little Italy delivers, and this place makes sure you don’t leave empty handed, or with any remaining willpower.

Ive been going to this bakery since I was a kid & i have never in all of my years had a St Joseph's pastry so horrible in my life.. the custard was thicker than the norm and sounded in the pastry that you couldn't even taste the shell..I called and spoke to Carmella and she felt she can talk to me any way she wanted and even cursed saying this is BS.. No no BS your customer service was disgusting and your pastries are even worse I will never buy from you again and to think I drove 40 min to buy them ..Horrible ...

Oldest bakery shop in Bronx's Little Italy (since 1912), this place was quaint, traditional and cozy with very friendly people behind the counter who make you want to stay. It's amazing what kindness can do. My Sicilian wife ordered a cappuccino and sfogliatella.
