Whose Mom Could Resist These Italian Pastries?

This special Mothers' Day Foodie Friday explores La Biscotteria.

Finding the perfect gift for your Mamma Mia is as easy as biscotti. In this week's Foodie Friday, Redwood City Patch's goes inside a traditional Italian bakery that would make any mom melt.

Husband and wife team Augustine and Angela Buonocore entered the bakery business over two decades ago and their flourishing business is testament to the quality of their biscotti, amaretti cookies, almond tortes and other delicious goods.

La Biscotteria offers Mother’s Day Gifts ranging from $15 to $25.

Angela is featuring her handmade jewelry in the bakery’s display case as this Mother’s Day Sweet Treat and she will be giving a FREE ½ lb. bag of biscotti with any jewelry purchase.

She also hands out free samples on Saturdays but says to get there by noon before they are all goobled up.
