Di Camillo Baking Co

Bread and peanut donuts… wow! Never had peanut donuts like these. Once you have one, it’s hard to stop! The bread though is by far the best in not only the town, but the State… seriously, this bread could be the death of me!

I stopped in Di Camillo for the first time during the Lewiston Art Festival. It’s definitely a cute place with a good variety of baked goods including breads and sweets, prepackaged gift items, small premade sandwiches, coffee, slices of tomato pie, etc. There is plenty to look at on the shelves and in the bakery cases. Lots of temptations!
We had an opportunity to try some small samples of some of their most popular bakery items. I absolutely loved the almond biscotti sample. Unfortunately the biscotti was only available in a prepackaged containers — the smallest size at $ 7.99. Perhaps they normally sell it individually, but there was a lot of customer traffic due to the festival that day. Bummer.
I opted for a Chinese sugar cookie and a peanut butter brownie wrapped to go. Less than $ 3! I ate the cookie as we finished our walk around town. I was good, but not fantastic. Surprisingly my brownie made it all the way back to North Buffalo before I scarfed it down. It was a rich, moist and flavorful with walnuts mixed in and a peanut butter frosting piped on top. Both were good, but not knock-​your-​socks-​off. It’s fair to say that I had very high expectations of the infamous Di Camillo Bakery. Based on my small sampling, I don’t think that I will feel compelled visit again — though it was a nice novelty while in the quaint town of Lewiston.

Rude! I’ve never been so angry with a place or a whole town for that matter.

Mmm… Bread!
I cant say enough about Di Camillos bakery. They have great buns that I love. Its a great place to go if your looking for a roll, to! My one complint is that the place smells alot like bread all the time. Maybe they should hang up some of those little Xmas trees? It would give the the place a nice minty smell which is a smell that I enjoy to smell. It makes me think of Gramma. She allways had a bowl of mint’s by the front door in a bowl.
