Take me to Paris or Baker Perfection at SoNo bakery!

Fairfield County "It!" recently had the pleasure of 
breakfast & a tour of the kitchen at

SONO BAKING co.
​Bakery & Cafe

in South Norwalk, CT!

SoNo Baking Company & Café embodies the authenticity of an artisanal bakery,
the warmth of a neighborhood coffee house and eatery,
and the sophistication of a from-scratch quality kitchen that offers exceptional catering. 
John personally designed the open kitchen and bakery,
which provides a view of hearth bread being baked in a deck oven imported from Italy, the art of beautifully decorated cakes, and the construction of delicate pastries -
all on display for guests to see. 
SoNo Baking Company is a strong supporter and fixture on the local Famers' Market scene and their bread and pastries can also be enjoyed at Fairfield County’s finest restaurants and markets.

​I started off with a frothy Cappuccino! 

I love when it is served with an abundance of creamy foam!

​Here is the wonderful

​SoNo Egg Sandwich
Scrambled Eggs with All Natural Bacon and Cheddar Cheese served on Croissant

You need to go to Paris to try to find another croissant as buttery and light inside!  Seriously fabulous! 

Another amazing Breakfast offered

Stuffed Brioche French Toast

Vanilla Pastry Cream, Organic Maple Syrup & Mixed Berries

It looks & tastes so decadent!

Martha Stewart recognized his exceptional talent and hired him at Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia,
both behind the scenes and on camera. 

Which later evolved to his own
​PBS show "Every Day Baking". 

​He only offers the best of ingredients,
farm fresh, handmade every day in his wonderful bakery.
It is impressive and delicious!!!

We had the opportunity to meet with the owner John Barricelli!

After growing up in the Bronx, with a family beginning with his great grandfather that had been in the industry,
he attended the prestigious Culinary Institute of America. 

Early in his career he worked at such renowned New York City restaurants as
The River Café and the Four Seasons where he worked under and learned the secrets of Parisian Chefs! 

They offer a great selection of pastries, breads and also serve lunch with the freshest daily ingredients. 

It was so much fun to taste and learn about the authenticity and
dedication to pure processes that culminates in such
​absolute deliciousness!

Thank you SONO Bakery!
