*Pasticceria Veneto* was opened in 1971, just a few steps from the historic center of Brescia. The shop was conceived as the workshop of Maestro Iginio Massari, or rather, his studio as an artist of pastry. Upon entering, the eye is immediately drawn to the countless shades of color and forms in the large display window: here, the sweet creations of the Master Pastry Chef are showcased, enchanting the eye before even tantalizing the taste buds. These creations reflect his belief that “pastry is the luxury we can afford.” Additionally, baked goods for enjoying at home are available for purchase, such as the traditional *bossolà* from Brescia, the panettone — recognized as the Master’s signature product — and **the Battito cake**, created by Massari for Brescia and Bergamo, the 2023 Capital of Culture.
*Pasticceria Veneto* retains a family-friendly atmosphere, where anyone can sit down for breakfast or an afternoon snack and feel at home, pampered by the young, skilled, and dynamic staff. As Massari states, the goal is to interpret and create what his customers desire, so choosing which sweet to try can be a delightful challenge. And if you happen to want to taste more, there’s no need to worry! Massari and his team have drastically reduced the amount of sugar in their creations, aiming to enhance their aromatic perception. Furthermore, they are deeply committed to sourcing the finest raw materials, essential for the quality of the products.
