Delicious!
If you've visited the Italian Market, you've popped into Isgro's. Gifting a loved one? This is the sweetest Italian South Philly experience you could pack in a tin.
Origin: South Philly, PA
Unit Size: Small Tin
A truly nostalgic, classic and delicious collection. Each tin contains a mix of Pignoli, Pasticcini, Apple Butter Sesame Seed, Almond Macaroons, and more assorted old fashioned Italian cookies. Made fresh in South Philly, then packed with care for the journey to you or your loved ones.
The Story
Located in the heart of the Italian Market, Isgro's has been serving the community since 1904 and is the oldest family-owned pastry shop in the area. Mario Isgro emigrated to Philly from Messina, Sicily, where he made a few extra lira doing odd jobs for an Italian barron. Being naturally drawn to the kitchen, he eventually learned all he could from the barron's exclusive pastry chef. 4 generations later, the recipes he learned and developed now form the foundation of this thriving South Philly pastry shop, helping to further the sweet legacy forged over a century ago.
Enjoy with espresso or tea, just make sure you don't finish them all before the guests arrive!

Best ever.....just like I remember.
Isgro's tin of Classic Italian Cookies was the perfect gift for my 87 year old father who is missing family and holiday favorites. Thank you for the prompt shipping and arrival as promised.
This tin was a gift and was it ever! Every single cookie was fresh and delicious. Great variety and yummy flavors. I had to hide the tin so it would last me thru the holiday.
Oh my goodness, Isgro's is the cutest little shop we were lucky to visit on our spring visit to Philly. These bring back ALL the memories. Yum!
