This place looks like it is shutting down The bakery choices were limited and what we picked seemed old. The eclair had a strange yellow filling and the cannoli filling was dry They also forgot one of the items we ordered All of the coolers that had frozen food were empty as was the display that used to have their stuffed breads There wasn't any signage to explain the empty displays I don't know what is up but it isn't the bakery it used to be read more

Bloomfield is lucky to have such a business! Pasticceria Italia is a gem! Whether we need a quick slice of pizza for lunch, the best lemon bar or cannoli on the planet for a special treat, or a box of treats for a party, the pasticceria always comes through. Everyone in my family has a favorite treat at the pasticceria, and we go often. I lived in Italy for years and can attest to the authenticity of the pastries. Chef Emiddio is making his father proud! read more

Wonderful cappuccino and biscotti Delicious soups and salads Amazing birthday cakes I have been going here for over 30 years read more

Great Italian bakery that was opened for years then closed in late 2025. The Cannoli's were amazing

Service today wasn't great, the young lady was sullen. We've come here many times and have never been disappointed. Particularly love the cannoli and cookies. read more

Sadly, the Bloomfield location of Pasticceria Italia has closed (November 2025). I will miss them for special birthday cakes, soup and a roll for lunch, pizza slices whenever, and individual slices of cake or cookies to bring to a small gathering. There are signs in the windows that direct you to their first location: Pasticceria Italia 610 College Highway Southwick, MA 01777 1-413-569-2250 read more

Best cannoli in area ! Love the place ! Good stuffed breads also ! Best bakery in this area for sure

We love their mini cannolis - they are our go to dessert offering when we invited to a gathering or to someone's home for dinner - and the Italian cookie selection is amazing as well! The meals are excellent too. read more

The pastries I recently bought were stale and dry. I had to throw them away they were so bad

So sad. Our cannolis were stale at Thanksgiving and now Christmas cookies are all stale as well. :( This was always one of the best for baked goods. There must be new ownership. read more

The staff is always helpful and they have the best cakes around! So lucky to have such a delicious bakery right in town!

So many choices, so little time to eat them here at Pasticceria Italia...that's the problem. AND what a problem to have. We each got a Cappuccino Cake which were delicious and so much better than Tiramisu. A piece of Cheesecake with Strawberries was to be a gift for back home. Luckily I didn't eat that in the car on the way back! read more

We had an assortment of their pastries/ cake slices and some cookies. The ricotta cake and tiramisu were good but nothing special. The cannoli and carrot cake were amazing. Do yourself a favor and definitely pick up some cannolis from here! I will be back for more. Their rainbow cookies were delicious-one of my favorites. Their pizza and calzones looked delicious, I'll have to try both next time. read more

This place has a new owner. Portions are smaller. Prices increased. Closed more often. Check before you go. Carrot cake is more frosting than cake. While this place has been convenient for me, I'm going elsewhere in the future. read more

Nothing was fresh. Cannolis were stale as well as the lobster claws. Since the owner passed away this store has gone way downhill! I had to throw everything away. read more

This place is absolutely phenomenal. They make a lobster tail pastry with a flaky crust full of a light vanilla custard. Emiddio the owner makes everything from scratch. The grinders are the best in the area with made on site grinder rolls, fresh roasted peppers, locally made Italian meats - its a treasure. read more

Just a wonderful place with so many terrific options. Its a wonderful Italian bakery with cannolis, cupcakes, cookies, stuffed breads, huge cakes, and all sorts of pastries. Its a grocery store with a big refrigerated case full of sauces and pastas and all sorts of grab and go options. They have a big selection of Italian water ices. It's a pizzeria and sandwich shop that gets pretty busy lunch time- all sorts of hot and cold grinders, salads, and half a dozen pizzas by the slice. Three of us from work had a real nice lunch here today. My two slices, pepperoni and sliced tomato, were big and tasted great -plenty of cheese, plenty of sauce, and lots of toppings. You simply can't go wrong here. read more

Ordered the carrot cake ($40.) However the cake had no nuts, raisins, or pineapple in the cake. It was basically a spice cake and not the moist carrot cake you would expect. The frosting was not a cream cheese frosting but a too sickening sweet type. Everyone scraped off most of the frosting from the cake they were served. The cake was decorated nicely but extremely disappointing . Would never order this again. read more

This is one of the BEST places in the area for pastries and cake. They have so many flavors for pastries and cupcakes that you be confused on how to choose when you can have all of it. My favorite flavors here are the white chocolate raspberry, the snicker cupcake and the double chocolate pastry. They also have some readymade full round cakes that you can pick up. Absolutely a fan of the cookie and cream cake, very moist, rightly sweet and great flavor. Custom cakes are their speciality too. They also accept if you have some design that you want to get done and they give recommendations. Overall they bake great cakes, no way you will dislike any of it. There are some great selections of cookies too. They have a small seating area and a small menu to choose from - pizza slices, coffee and a few more items. I have not tried anything from the menu, but plan to do so soon. All in all, great place. read more

We love this place. Anytime we are asked or offer to bring dessert, this is our go-to. The pastries are delicious and decadent. You can get a single napoleon or slice of carrot cake, etc, whole cakes, cookies, cupcakes, etc. All yummy! read more

You can see the photos it's great food but what the photos can't show you is the wonderful service and family atmosphere. This is a community hub and it shows. Be prepared to make eye contact with a lot of delicious looking baked goods. Also the cappuccinos are fantastic. read more

Met a dear friend for coffee and a scone here this morning. Unfortunately, the scone was so dry it couldn't possibly have been made today. Made me wish we had gone to Starbucks instead. Oh well. I hear they have great cookies and lunch items though. read more

very disappointed on a Thursday night town green there was one amazing young man working and no one was there to help him line was out the door. Someone came out and turned off off all the lights while there was a cloud in the restaurant read more

On my commute to or from work, I have periodically stopped here for morning coffee and a biscotti and/or scone. For the early birds, they are conveniently open at 7am daily. I have not had the opportunity to try any of their other Italian pastries or cakes. I often times see patrons coming in for custom-order cakes, I may have to take the plunge and try that out sometime! There's also a fairly large dine-in area if you care to hang around. read more

I stumbled across this lovely Italian restaurant on accident while shopping in the Wintonbury Mall plaza. I was pleasantly surprised at the variety of fresh baked deserts and pastries. They have a beautiful display of decadent goodness to satisfy that nagging sweet tooth. The cannoli cake is a must try and their pizza is to die for. Not to mention the warm welcome you feel from the staff! Whenever I'm in the area now, I make it a point to grab a quick bite and a desert to go! read more

whatever you do, don't order any food. had lunch there and it was the worst meal I've ever had. Food tasted old and was overcooked.

Ordered an assortment of pastries for a morning office meeting, coming to $25. I found them to be stale and dry. For me personally, I ordered a piece of the snickers cheesecake which was out of this world delicious. They were doing a brisk business and had to wait quite a while to be helped. Parking was challenging, to say the least. I'd like to go back and visit their savory side for lunch. read more

Today we looked for our favorite Italian Pastry shop in Bloomfield, Ct after moving away from the area 13 years ago. And to our surprise it was there, ready for our visit during this trying time with the pandemic and did not disappoint! Our favorite birthday cake, the round chocolate mousse cake was there, looking as beautiful as we remembered it. We hurried to my in-laws and celebrated my mother in law's 78th birthday. It tasted amazing, just like we remembered! The store also had other beautiful traditional Italian pastries, ready to go soups and pasta, and ready made calzones of many flavors! Please don't hesitate to stop by for fabulous food! read more

When I'm craving for Italian cookies this my go to bakery. I was always satisfied with their cookies, fresh and soft. It's April 6,2020 in the midst of Coronavirus when I purchased these cookies. I was disappointed as those cookies were HARD and seem tasteless except for those rainbow cookies which I can taste the chocolate and yet DRY. THESE COOKIES ARE LIKE A WEEK OLD COOKIES! No sense in calling to complaint because they have a tract record with me that the manager/ store owner would not return my calls in the past when I purchased a bad cake. I should had know better not to buy cookies at this time as sales must be slow and those cookies must have been sitting stale. read more

This star rating pertains to the bakery section, which should be the only counter you go to at Pasticceria Italia. I love their mini chocolate-dipped cannolis! Last night, I picked up a couple of cake slices to share with my hubby for Valentine's Day. Though we don't really celebrate it, I wanted an excuse to buy something sweet. I picked up a slice of German Chocolate Cake and White Chocolate Raspberry, which tasted like it had a little bit of amaretto. Both fantastic, but I prefer the White Chocolate Raspberry. As for the deli/pizza, skip that! read more

You know how in a lot of bakeries, the pastries look great but then you try them and are disappointed because they don't taste nearly as good they looked? So far, that hasn't happened here. Everything looks amazing, and whatever I've tried has tasted even better. Be sure to try the chocolate raspberry mousse cake! read more

Cup cakes were awful. They looked good but they were dry like they have been sitting for days. To be fair the italian bread and stuffed breads were good. read more

Delicious cannolis and friendly staff! I Love the way the store is set up. You've got the bakery on one side and the deli next door. I like that there are tables to sit and eat. read more

This bakery is amazing. The cannolis are absolutely to die for - chocolate covered regular sized are obviously a must!!! We can't kept but stop in for a sweet treat when we pass by. Picked up food for dinner for the first time & was pretty satisfied. Bread stuffed buffalo chicken was really easy to pop in the oven, tasted fresh, and was entirely filled instead of being overly coated with bread. read more

I grew up with this bakery , and I have a few favorites. But this time around we ordered a 2 tier carrot cake for my grandfathers 82nd Birthday. The cake was so DRY, and it seemed just like a cheap package mix. On top of that the BAD handwriting (is this a grocery clerk or a Gourmet Bakery ?) and to top it off the person wrote "Happy 82END BIRTHDAY" .. now thanks for telling my grandfather to blow his candles because it might be his last time ?!? We've called several times and my mom showed up in person , cake in hand to complain. But every time there seems to be NO MANAGER ON DUTY ? Tired of the run around and bad customer service. read more

Definite 5 stars! Pastries were delicious. Will be returning back again, just wish I'd discovered this place sooner. The staff are also very friendly and welcoming. read more

This Italian bakery is the best in the area. I have been searching high and low for decent Italian pastries. I was very impressed with the quality and selection. Not only are the pasties fabulous, but they also have amazing grinders! I've had the eggplant parm and the chicken parm grinder. It's affordable and very tasty! They also have quite a selection of take home items, such as soups and sauce. I'm so excited I found this place! read more
