About us

I'm Carmela, owner and founder of 'For The Love Of Biscotti.'

As a young girl, I grew up on a farm in the South Eastern suburbs of Melbourne. Fortunately for me, my Nonna and Nonno had the farm next door!

I remember as a little girl, going to Nonna's house and watching her bake traditional Italian biscotti and cakes. The care and attention she took to shape and mould each and every biscotti fascinated me...

When the baking was done, we’d sit down in the garden, with a cup of tea and share the biscotti together.

As I got older, when asking Nonna for a recipe she'd always say "No", which was quickly followed up with "You can come over and we'll do it together."

It’s these beautiful memories that sparked the creation of ‘For The Love Of Biscotti!’ Memories that I strive to continue to keep alive when baking with my own children.

I’ve taken the traditional recipes taught to me by my Nonna and combined them with modern flavours, to create something really special that I know you’ll love!

I hope you enjoy the biscotti as much as I love sharing them with all of you. The best way to eat these delicious home made biscotti is with a cup of tea or coffee and in great company.

Carmela xoxo
