Peter Sciortino's Bakery

When I come to Sciortino’s bakery and am greeted by the Vella’s (first generation Sicily Americans) I feel like I am back in Palermo buying wonderful Italian bread and pastries. The cookies and Biscotti are true Italian products made in Milwaukee. The cannoli is made fresh, as they should be and as they are in Sicily. My diet goes to heck every time I walk into this authentic Italian bakery.

Awesome hardrolls!

Normally, I wouldn’t rate if it wasn’t good. I try to follow the principle if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything and I like to support small businesses. However, this truly was the worst Bavarian donut I’ve ever eaten. It was stale, the cream was chunky (curdled). Either the donut was a day or two old or they truly don’t know how to bake. It was not only a waste of calories but there is no need to ever go back. I’m not sure how they receive any 5 star ratings.
