The Bread Factory

The bread factory was born out of a collaboration with Roy Cascino. I met Roy via the former owner of Shanghai Casanova, Paolo Velini, who sadly passed away few years ago. Paolo already knew the Pizza Cresciuta, the traditional Easter cake that we produced at our bakery in Italy. He was a big fan of it and each year bought some from us, even before we met. Paolo put me in touch with Roy, who in 2008 was managing the Hohensaufen, a food company dealing with typical Sicilian products.
