I encourage others to try the bakery’s offerings.
I unknowingly showed up a little before their posted operating hours NEEDING fresh cannolis for a tough hospital visit later that day. Rose could have told me to come back at 9am when they opened but instead took care of me above and beyond! She mad a tough morning so much better. If you see this Rose, THANK YOU!!!
Place was spotless, pastries were spot on and the coffee was DELICIOUS!
When our number was called, we were greeted by the amazing Grandma Rose and let me tell you, she is truly the heart and soul of the bakery. She keeps everything moving with humor, warmth, and incredible energy. While filling orders, she called out, “Fresh out of the oven, fresh bread!” and you could feel the love she puts into the place.
The owner is also a doll! Warm, welcoming, and very involved in making sure everything runs perfectly.
We ordered lobster tails, cannolis, and cookies. The lobster tails are just so yummy! The bakery is spotless, welcoming, and there’s also seating if you want to sit and enjoy a coffee, espresso, with a homemade croissant.
I highly recommend Rispoli Bakery in Hawthorne. Ask for Grandma Rose & tell her Ray and Betty sent you.

The cannoli cake with fresh strawberries was a huge hit — nearly every guest told us it was one of the best cakes they’ve ever had (and we completely agree!). It was light, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The pastry board was also gorgeous and delicious — a true showstopper that guests are still talking about. We’re so grateful to Rispoli’s for playing such a sweet role in our wedding day. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch service and incredible desserts!
When it came to catering my husband’s 40th birthday, there was no question—I knew Rispoli Bakery was the only choice! I was overwhelmed with so many event details and had no idea what kind of cake or dessert selection I wanted. Enter Rose—an absolute lifesaver! She guided me through the entire selection process, offering expert recommendations on flavors, quality, and variety. I sent over an inspiration photo for the cake, and when I saw the final result, I was speechless. Rispoli didn’t just match the photo—they far exceeded it! It was a true masterpiece, and I was so moved that I actually cried when I saw it (lol).
The dessert spread was so impressive. Every single guest raved about how incredible everything tasted, constantly asking, “Where are these amazing desserts from?!” Thanks to Rose and the team’s thoughtful recommendations, every choice was a home run.
I cannot say enough good things about Rose and the entire Rispoli Bakery family. Their talent, professionalism, and warm, welcoming nature make them a joy to work with. Thank you for making my husband’s birthday so special—you’ve gained a lifelong customer! ♡
