Our Story

My name is Lyn Marie Fioravanti. I am a registered and licensed dietitian of Italian/Sicilian descent. This combination definitely fuels my passion to feed people healthy, delicious food! Some foods that satisfy the most can be the simplest. This is certainly true of the recipes I use to make our biscotti and pizzelle. While it may seem odd to buy cookies from a dietitian, it is a testimony to the fact that all foods can fit into a healthy lifestyle.

Baker's Lane Biscotti is a labor of love. I have been making my grandmother's traditional Italian biscotti and pizzelle recipes for decades, and I have dreamed of offering them to the public for just as long. Whenever I shared them at home or gave them as gifts, I always heard the same thing, "You should market these!"  

Everything came together in the fall of 2018 to turn this dream into a reality.

My family moved to Baker's Lane in Marshfield when I was 13. Many joyous occasions happened there, including birthdays, retirement parties, graduations, and weddings. Besides family, one thing was always present—our homemade biscotti and pizzelle. I learned from my mother, who learned from her mother. From the shores of southern Sicily, I am so honored to share these delicious, small-batch Italian creations.

When I seriously started to think about starting this micro-business, I knew I couldn't afford to rent or buy a retail space to make such a small variety of product, so I started to bake in the beautiful, certified kitchen at my church (First Congregational Church of Monson, UCC). I gave a percentage of all sales back to the church as an ongoing fundraiser. When I "soft-launched" it after service one Sunday, I sold 18 dozen and received such positive feedback from everyone who sampled them! It was such a heart-warming experience to hear people reminisce once they saw and tasted the pizzelle. 

Fast forward to 2023, and production has moved to (another) First Congregational Church, this time in Ludlow! We were welcomed into our new space in October and hope to grow our business with their support. Baker’s Lane Biscotti received our wholesale license and is now ready to offer our popular cookies in restaurants and shops in 2024!
