Stephanie Sangiovanni – This is my story

My Mission, hope and prayer is that you will enjoy the same experience as I was blessed with growing up in an Italian home built on love, good food and memories to cherish.

May the Lord Bless all who indulge in my dream and my creations.

Welcome to Sangiovanni’s Italian Bakery where love is homemade, memories are well baked, and blessings are spoonful’s.

With a rich family history in authentic Italian cooking, my passion for baking started at a very very young age. I was born in Bronx, New York home to traditional authentic food and my favorite place to visit is and always has been Little Italy at Arthur Ave. and 187th St in the Bronx. My parents and grandparents came  from Italy and settled in New York. I am part of a large extended  family for which I am thankful for the training and experience in Italian traditions in both cooking and baking.

Passion

I have many years of experience working in the food and baking industry as I started working in a family owned Deli thus the beginning of my journey throughout the kitchen making fresh mozzarella, homemade pasta and ravioli or fresh hot bread and pastries.

With my talents and creative abilities I then decided to explore and specialize in cake decorating for wedding cakes and specialty cakes so I worked 16 plus years for Publix Supermarkets in the Bakery Department and was given the opportunity to explore in leadership, cross train employees at multiple Publix locations where I expanded my talents in specialty techniques and decorations.

I was led to a different path where I worked at DeRomos Italian Market for 6 years where I ultimately became Bakery Manager expounding my experience in authentic Italian baking to include pastries, biscotti, and many Italian cakes and cookies.

Family

Outside of the kitchen, I am a proud Christian, Italian American, mother of 2 who enjoys family time, nature, music, and bringing a smile to all the faces I meet.

May the Lord Bless You and Enjoy the Gifts the Lord has blessed me with on my new path he has led me to.
