Nuccio’s

This place has been around forever and they consistently provide customers with great baked goods. I recently picked up an oreo cheesecake from here for a friends BDAY and the entire cake disappeared in about 15 mins lol.
They also have great breads, cakes, cookies and pies all baked on premises. How can i forget to mention the great cookies and donuts! I tried a chocolate horn which was perfectly balanced with chocolate and flaky dough, a Nutella roll and macaroons and they were ALLLL delicious. Its almost like you can taste the love they were baked with !! Lol
Very friendly and helpful staff, great prices and variety of baked goods = perfect bakery for all your baked needs !! Next time i have to try the rainbow cookies and tiramasu.
PS. Cash only no cards accepted! Ok maybe its #FATKIDISSUES but i love this bakery !

Crispy lobster tail that’s not too sweet! For only $ 3.50 Pretty for me :) went in after snowstorm Jonas after being trapped in for 2 days and they were opened until 5pm that day.
I would definitely recommend if you’re in the area! I’m interested to try the other Italian baked goodies next time around.

I love this bakery. I usually come sometimes in the morning to get a bagel toasted with cream cheese. They are so fresh and good compared to the other stores bagels in the area. Also you must try a Nutella croissant. They are AMAZING! I’ve had pastries from here a couple of times and they taste so fresh and good. I also have had a birthday cake from here and it was really good too.

I used to love this place but the pastry and cakes have been steadily getting worse. The staff has been rude and have frequently gotten my orders wrong. It is really a shame but I think I am going to find a new bakery.

I buy these jelly cookies at my local Stop&Shop. They are delectable! I have fed them to my landscapers on a warm summer day with ice-​cold iced tea as well as an after-​lunch dessert for my handyman, who has a sweet tooth.
The cookies are so fresh-​tasting and just so satisfying. Can’t buy them often — would overindulge in them all the time, so buy them only occasionally.
Yum! Thanks.
(PS: Once you buy them, refrigerate them. Just sayin’.)

This place is p ok

You can buy Nuccios cookies in Stop and Shop in tTumbull Ct. I found them there today. Best sesame cookies from a commercial bakery that i ever had outside of my mom’s — take it from a NY italian!

I love Italian bakeries and since I decided to try every single AYCE sushi place in Bensonhurst, I actually walk by this place every time. I can tell you based on what I’ve tried, this place is insane. The bread is apparently baked fresh by 12pm everyday and I get there about two hours after this. I can’t keep from eating bits and pieces of it as I take the train home. I’m pretty sure I look like a homeless guy in the subway eating a loaf of bread… well I would if Asians were ever homeless people.
I’ve also tried their black and white cookie and can tell you it gives you exactly what you expect of a mixed race cookie. Now if only comrade Obama could get the message huh? But the cookie is nice and fresh and the fondant on the top is, as always, a great addition to the cookie. They actually sometimes run out of these though, they didn’t have any today and I almost cried because it took me five minutes of staring and walking between the counters to decide on a secondary option so probably best to get there earlier in the day.
Probably will remain one of my priority stops whenever I’m down there.

This place deserves a re-​review. I’ve been going to Joe’s of Avenue U with the girl for awhile now, and Nuccio’s is our go-​to for dessert. Compared to some other old school Italian bakeries, this place doesn’t look like much at a glance, and the items towards the front of the store look pretty generic. Walk towards the back and you’ll see all the old staples though. Every time the service is very friendly and accommodating. Did I mention that it’s dirt cheap? I don’t think I’ve paid more than $ 10 here for dessert for 2 ever, and it’s usually around just $ 5.
Everything I’ve had has been great. Their lobster tail is up there with the best I’ve had. I am typically turned off by lobster tails with their use of whipped cream, but Nuccio’s cream is luscious. The rum baba, Italian cheesecake, rainbow cookies, cannoli, and other things I’ve tried are also great. You literally cannot go wrong. While they mainly are a pastry shop, they make bread as well which I am looking forward to trying.
I am planning on getting something more ambitious from Nuccio’s and if all goes well, I will bump this rating up. This is why Brooklyn wipes the floor with other Italian bakeries: fresh, consistently great Italian classics.

This pastry shop is incredible. They make excellent cookies, amazing cannolis, and their cakes are out of this world. Just the smell you get when you walk in makes you want to buy everything you see. You only find the best right here in this area of Brooklyn.

I love Italian cookies! And here in New Haven I can find these fabulous cookies at the local supermarket. I can not say enough about them. Buttery, delicate and delicious. Growing up in NYC we are so spoiled. We have the best bagels, the best delis, the best pizza and of course Nuccio’s. So glad the cookies have made it this far north. Woo hoo!

Always have such fresh products and bread. The service is always welcoming and warming.

My husband loves this bakery so I decided to order his Birthday cake there. They made an amazing beautiful and tasty cake with Edgar Alan Poe portrait on it! They made this Birthday absolutely unforgettable and special! Thank you so very much!

This is one of several Italian bakeries in the area… i come here for the fresh Italian bread which has fresh loaves everyday at 12 (in addition to fresh bread in the morning) and the apple turnover. The apple turnover is delicious, it has a decent amount of apples inside and is not too sweet. The italian cookies are not bad. Not too far away is the famous Spumoni gardens.

This bakery is truly a hidden gem far out in Brooklyn. I’ve only had their apple turnover and it’s so addicting because it’s that good!

Cannoli Review
On a recent cannoli hunt throughout south brooklyn, I ventured out to Nuccio’s. I got there around 5 minutes after it opened and the nice spanish lady was still busy moving trays of baked goods from the back kitchen up to the front.
I ordered two cannolis, she asked if I wanted the small or the large…
always go large… cannolis were then filled to order.
4 bucks later, I was out the door.
Solid cannoli, not the best I’ve had but most certainly not the worst.

I hosted a dinner party and one of my guests brought a cheese cake and some pastries from this bakery.
I found egg shells in the pineapple cheesecake. It was more than just one piece of shell, in my tiny ¹⁄₁₆ of a slice or so, I found at least 7 pieces of egg shell in there.
I don’t think this will be a place I will be patronizing.

I took a special trip out here for personal reasons. I chatted with the owner who could not have been kinder.
The shop is small, and not much too look at (besides the delicious treats) but it’s exactly what you expect from a small, family owned italian bakery.
I got a tiramisu which wasn’t the best, to be honest. The lady fingers were dry on one end, and the cream itself was a little too stiff for my liking. But, the cannolis (made to order) were delicious and had a good old-​world authentic vibe to them. My folks got a lemon cream/​cream puff concotion and raved about it.
All in all, a great bakery. Those who live in the area are lucky!

I needed some simple rolls for sandwiches and happened to be walking by… how lucky, a bakery.
Then walked in. Holy crap.
This place offers wall-​to-​wall decadence. Cookies, cakes, crumbles, cannolis. biscotti, pies — and yes, regular of breads in all manner. Rolls, loaves, ciabatta.
I was low on cash and walked out with 2 big rolls for a $ 1. Luckily for my waist, I could have easily walked out with 47,000 calories.
This doesn’t mean I won’t return. I just need to hit the ATM first.

Loved this spot! Apres pizza we went in for some sweets to take home. Lovely Italian pastries and beautifully baked breads… the kind of bread I do travel for as some of these bakeries were started by people who baked in Italy and do bread justice.
I bought a lovely small bread/​roll for $.50
Slices of light, lemony strawberry cheesecake were $ 1 each yes you read that right. A plain brownie was a just ok, but want to try more. Very competent service plus Nuccios rhymes with Cuccios (my childhood bakery on Ave X).
