Circo's Pastry Shop

I recently ordered Struffoli and an assorted Italian cookie box from Circo’s Pastry Shop and had them shipped all the way to Hawaii. The care they put into packaging was unbelievable — they even lined the cookie box with bubble wrap, and not a single cookie arrived broken. That alone deserves five stars. What really struck me was the nostalgia. It’s been about 25 years since I’ve had these cookies, and the first bite instantly transported me back to my childhood. I brought them over to my parents’ house, and it was a throwback for them too. My mother grew up around the block on Irving Avenue and remembers when the family took over the bakery so seeing these cookies again brought back memories. I’m so grateful that Circo’s ships all the way out here to Hawaii. My kids tried the cookies fo

UPDATE: I was so happy that someone from the bakery reached out to me. We talked and after a nice discussion the bakery sent me another order of honey balls. They are going to arrive today. Yesterday my order of fig cookies arrived and I want to tell everyone THEY ARE DELICIOUS . I was not disappointed at all. I hope one day after the busy holiday to take a ride to Brooklyn to actually visit the bakery and pick up some other goodies. Thank you Circo's for hearing me and making things even better!! Merry Christmas. My anticipated order arrived today and I’m totally disappointed. I purchased 2 trays of honey balls and they were stale. I was very shocked by this. Anyway I tried to email directly but was unable . My hope is that they contact me to make this right

I ordered a few baked treats from this bakery through online delivery — a chocolate ganache pistachio tart, an éclair, and a Sicilian-style pastry filled with pistachio cream. Everything arrived in good shape, but overall the experience was just okay. The éclair was a bit too sweet for my taste, and the chocolate on top didn’t seem to be of the best quality. The Sicilian pastry was interesting and quite filling, with a unique flavor, but still didn’t really stand out. Given the bakery’s strong reviews and reputation for Italian desserts, I expected a bit more refinement. I’ve definitely had better elsewhere.

I have been searching high and low for custard pasticiotti and I finally found them here! Really great tasting dough and nice filling too. I’m really glad I got to take some home for my dad. I’ll be back next time I am in Brooklyn!

I live in Florida and was craving a taste of home. I ordered a pound each of large Fig and sesame cookies. They arrived in 3 days perfectly boxed and shipped. They take great pride in their product and it shows. The cookies were delicious and very fresh. I will be ordering again soon for Christmas.
