La Guli Pastry Shop Wedding Cakes since 1937
La Guli Pastry Shop is an Italian bakery located in Astoria, NY. For more than 80 years, this family-owned and operated patisserie has provided gourmet, handmade cakes for weddings of all sizes and styles. If you can dream it, these professionals can make it. They welcome you to order your custom cake and indulge in their delicious and freshly-baked pastries. La Guli Pastry Shop was founded by Paolo Notaro and his brothers, who emigrated to New York City from Palermo in 1920. After starting two locations in Manhattan, the Notaro brothers came to Astoria, where they opened this shop in 1937. Still in its original location, the bakery features its original storefront, interior woodwork, shelves, and terrazzo tile floors. It is now run by Paolo’s son Rosario and his granddaughter Maria, who carry on the family tradition of baking fresh sweets every day. For your wedding reception, La Guli Pastry Shop will create a cake that is fully tailored to your tastes and preferences. To accompany this centerpiece, the bakers also offer a number of other Italian goodies. These include cannolis, biscotti, butler cookies, and pignoli cookies, which can come in a variety of assortments for your decadent dessert display.
