Did you know I’m Italian? 🇮🇹 Born and raised in Milan for my first 40 years — that’s where I fell in love with baking, whipping up desserts for family dinners and friends since I was a little girl. But in Italy, pastry shops were everywhere, so I never had to make my own!

Moving to Connecticut changed that fast — barely a pasticceria in sight, so now I bake everything myself. Funny thing though: I used to have a real sweet tooth, but now the joy is just in creating. Sometimes I taste it, sometimes I don’t — the process is the reward.

Case in point: this cake, inspired by the new Dolce & Gabbana collection that just walked the runway in Taormina, Sicily.

Have an idea? Call me — I’d love to bring it to life! 🎂

The comeback.

Some recipes surprise me. This one completely stole the show.

When I introduced my Caprese al Limone during my Tour of Italy series, I had no idea so many of you would fall in love with it. Messages kept coming in asking for the recipe and wondering when I’d make it again.

So, it’s back!

Originally from the beautiful island of Capri, this flourless Italian cake is made with almonds, white chocolate, and fresh lemon—a simple combination that tastes like an Italian summer.

And yes, the recipe is now on my blog. Link in bio.

Can’t decide? Good. That’s what the assorted box is for 🤍

Four flavors, one box — perfect for when you want a little of everything, or when you’re ordering for someone else and don’t want to guess wrong.

The Assorted box is one of my favorites to put together. Every flavor in there earns its spot.

The trickiest part of making a macaron (and why it matters) 👀

Macarons are made with the French meringue method — and every batch is a little bit of a gamble. Humidity, oven temperature, how long you rest them, how you fold the batter… any one of these can mean the difference between a perfect shell with that signature “foot” and a batch that cracks, hollows out, or never rises right.

I’ve made thousands of these. I still pay attention to every single one.

Meet the new arrivals 👀

Two new macaron flavors join the July lineup: Coconut & Chocolate Chips, and Mango.

The Coconut & Chocolate Chips has a super-concentrated coconut coulis, mini chocolate chips dotted throughout, and organic dried coconut all around the edge. The Mango has mango coulis mixed right into the buttercream, with a pure mango coulis heart hidden in the center.

Both available now — link in bio to order 🤍

Ordering just got easier 📋

After months of work behind the scenes, all orders now go through one simple system — our Monthly Menu Orders Form, right in the link tree. Fill it out, and I’ll confirm everything by invoice.

The website will be updated to match soon, but for now, this is the fastest way to get your order in for July: macarons, cookie boxes, sourdough, the Caprese cakes — all of it.

This year, the “OPEN” sign stays up all July 🇮🇹

Normally, this is the month I’d be packing for Italy. Not this year — I’m staying right here, which means Barbara’s Delights bakes and bakes and bakes all month long, no closures, no gaps in your orders.

So whatever you need — a cake for a summer birthday, a cookie box for a get-together, your weekly sourdough — I’m here for all of it, every single day of July.

By popular request, these two are back 🍋🍫

Back in March, I made the Caprese al Limone and Caprese al Cioccolato as part of my “Tour of Italy” series, and so many of you asked for them again that I knew they had to return for July.

If you’ve never had one: no flour, ever — just almonds, butter, eggs, and sugar, baked until the inside stays dense and almost fudgy while the top gets that signature crackly crust.

A quick note: this cake is naturally gluten-free by ingredients, but my kitchen isn’t a dedicated gluten-free or nut-free space, so please keep that in mind if you’re baking — I mean ordering — with allergies in mind.

Both flavors are on the menu this month — link in bio to order 🤍
