Delicious Food Now That's Italian!
TIPS FROM A PRO
"Baking is my passion," says MiraBay resident Debra Nicola. "Starting at 7 years old, I began working and helping in my grandparent's bakery in the Bronx, NY. My family opened their first bakery in Benevento, Italy and migrated to New York in 1935, opening their second bakery across from Yankee Stadium. We sold the family business in 1990 and began other careers and raising our families. "Fast forward to now. I have decided that after much encouragement from family and friends to begin offering our family dishes that have been favorites in multiple countries for over 100 years. And I'm very excited to focus on offering my Italian Ricotta Cheesecake made from a family recipe that cannot be duplicated. I grow my own citrus zest and put much love into every dish I make! "I love to cook for others and share my heritage and that’s why I’m excited to also offer catering services featuring my family’s Italian specialities. I look forward to baking for your next event, dinner party, tea party or if you just want a really amazing authentic cheesecake. Each of my cakes are made fresh for each individual customer.
