Il Forno Di Antonella — Restaurant in Modesto

Ms. Antonella Agrazzi-Turchetti is a master baker; her Italian cookies and pastries belong in North Beach in San Francisco where her store would have a line 2 miles long. Her almond cookies, pastries & sweets are better than anything I’ve had in Italy or France. Decadent beyond anything imaginable; she uses high quality almond paste with a French inspired Madeleine-pastry-base (the Nutella addition elevates it to a confession-caliber sin).
