A soft shortcrust pastry that closes like a small jewel box, hiding a generous, extra lemon jam within its heart — each bocconotto is presented in an individual portion, ready to be given as a gift or savored alone.

In Southern Italy — between Abruzzo, Calabria, and Puglia — the bocconotto is an institution. This small cake, whose name literally means "small bite," has been passed down for generations in family kitchens and village bakeries, each with its own secret filling. Cianciullo has chosen lemon: an extra jam, vibrant and fragrant, nestled in the heart of a shortcrust pastry with an almost melting softness.

What distinguishes the bocconotto is precisely this contrast — the crumbly pastry that yields under the bite, then this explosion of tangy freshness that awakens the taste buds. A simple combination, but one that has proven itself for decades in traditional Italian bakeries.

Presented in individual portions in an elegant box, these bocconotti are designed to be shared — placed on a party platter, offered as a gourmet gift, or simply enjoyed one by one, like a little Italian sweet treat.

Why our customers love them:

  • The perfect contrast between the melting shortcrust pastry and the generous lemon jam heart
  • An elegant individual format, packaged in a box — ready to give effortlessly
  • A traditional Southern Italian recipe, passed down for generations
  • The tangy freshness of lemon, which beautifully contrasts with the sweetness of the pastry
  • The 200g format, ideal for a party platter or a shared snack

 

WHY WE USE THIS SHIPPING SYSTEM ONCE A WEEK

The reason is simple: that's why we use this shipping system once a week, where products are shipped on Sundays.

If we were to keep all products in large quantities, we would need a very, very, very large warehouse, like a large distribution center. The cost of that would significantly increase our prices.

Instead, we keep limited stock and receive weekly deliveries.

However, not all of our 100+ suppliers deliver at the same time, and not all of them have an accurate inventory system — and that's another story lol.

For this reason, in order to build your package, we have to wait for products from all suppliers. If we already have all the items, your package may be sent faster. It also depends on the volume of orders.

We hope you understand 🙏

WHEN WILL MY ORDER BE SHIPPED?

All orders are dispatched once a week, on Sundays. All services, including express service, follow this same shipping schedule.

You place an order here (Week 1) – for example: whether it's Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, or Saturday.

👉 This is considered our order week (Week 1).

👉 Your order will be prepared from the following Monday until Saturday, then dispatched on the following Sunday (the next Sunday, not the one in the week you ordered).

👉 If you order on Sunday or later in the new week, your package will then be dispatched the Sunday after that, approximately 14 days later.

Product FAQ

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

WHEN WILL MY ORDER BE SHIPPED?

Orders are processed weekly.

If you place your order before Sunday, it will be processed and shipped on the following Sunday (not the immediate Sunday).

If you order after Sunday, it will be processed and shipped on the following Sunday (i.e., the second Sunday after your order).

WHERE ARE THESE PRODUCTS LOCATED?

All our products are already in Canada, in our warehouse, ready to be shipped. You will not have any customs fees or hidden charges upon delivery.

WHY DO YOU SHIP ONCE A WEEK?

Because we work with several importers and suppliers.

Some products are in limited quantity in our warehouse and we must wait for the missing items to be received.

Since our suppliers do not all deliver on the same day, we consolidate orders and ship once a week to ensure your order is complete.

WHY IS AN ITEM MISSING FROM MY ORDER?

Some of our suppliers do not have a real-time inventory system and do not always notify us when a product is out of stock.

In addition, some received items may have an expiration date that is too soon. We check each product upon receipt and remove those that do not meet our standards.

If an item is missing, it is because we have chosen not to include it in order to guarantee you the best possible quality.

WHY DON'T YOU HAVE A RETURN POLICY?

As these are food products, we cannot accept returns for safety and hygiene reasons.

Once a product has been shipped, we cannot guarantee the storage or handling conditions.

Why has the price of this product increased since my last order?

Our products are purchased in euros, so the exchange rate directly influences our prices.

In addition, transportation and import costs can vary, which can also impact the final price.
