Brooklyn is in New York, in the Northeast, where four distinct seasons shape local life: hot humid summers, snowy winters that can close businesses for a day, and a dense pattern of towns where walking, transit and street parking all matter. Getting around Brooklyn is easiest by car; street parking is metered in busy downtown areas, and most suburban businesses have their own lot. Ride-share apps such as Uber and Lyft operate across New York's larger cities, and public transit varies from extensive to minimal.

I am a cannoli fanatic and, to be honest, I was so happy when I saw that they filled their cannolis as soon as you ordered them. However, the filling was not the texture that I like and it was a bit on the sweet side. They were not bad cannolis, and I understand why people like this place, but they are not like Mike’s or Modern in Boston. I prefer a thicker consistency rather than a fluffy one.

I ordered the Saint Joseph’s Combo and the Large Cannoli. They arrived at my home in Raleigh, N.C. in perfect condition and in time for my family to enjoy the sfingi di San Giuseppe and the Zeppole for Saint Joseph’s day! Everything was so good and brought me back to my time growing up in South Ozone Park, Queens NY. The Cannoli were also delicious! So glad I found an old school bakery in NY that delivers nationwide! I will without a doubt order from Circo’s again!

I ordered cookies and biscottis 2 times and they were absolutely delicious. Fresh and not too sweet. Very satisfying flavors. Quick delivery to Tennessee. Boxed and packaged very well. Not one cookie was broken. I am planning to get pastries on my next order in an overnight delivery. Yes it’s all expensive to get these amazing deserts …….. but it’s well worth it since there’s nothing like it here. I prefer to spend my money on a specialized old fashioned family owned business for these fresh made Sicilian delights than buy store bought junk. I Rate this pastry shop very highly and thank you for the great goodies!!!

I have been searching high and low for custard pasticiotti and I finally found them here! Really great tasting dough and nice filling too. I’m really glad I got to take some home for my dad. I’ll be back next time I am in Brooklyn!

I recently ordered Struffoli and an assorted Italian cookie box from Circo’s Pastry Shop and had them shipped all the way to Hawaii. The care they put into packaging was unbelievable — they even lined the cookie box with bubble wrap, and not a single cookie arrived broken. That alone deserves five stars. What really struck me was the nostalgia. It’s been about 25 years since I’ve had these cookies, and the first bite instantly transported me back to my childhood. I brought them over to my parents’ house, and it was a throwback for them too. My mother grew up around the block on Irving Avenue and remembers when the family took over the bakery so seeing these cookies again brought back memories. I’m so grateful that Circo’s ships all the way out here to Hawaii. My kids tried the cookies for the first time in their lives and are completely hooked. And please — consider opening a shop on Oʻahu. You already have fans waiting. (We will crack into the Struffoli next week)
