a word about Colavita Confections
Colavita Confections is a delivery service of baked goods, from cakes and cupcakes to cookies and confections, serving the Greater Philadelphia Area. Everything is made from scratch with hand-selected quality ingredients, focusing equally on taste and presentation to ensure an excellent product.
This business is operated out of a completely separate bakery kitchen in-home, certified and regularly inspected by the PA Health Department, ran out of East Norriton 19403. Orders are delivered directly to the client. Orders must be placed ahead of time, the amout of notice needed varies depending on the time of year, but the more notice the better. One person on production means that we book up quickly and can only take on so many orders per week.
This is a small family business, Emily does all of the production and Pete does all of the deliveries (+ he does a lot more behind the scenes work to help keep the busniess runnning!). We work very hard to support our family and keep customers happy.
Emily graduated from Montgomery County Community College with an Associates degree in Business Administration, and then attended the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, NY, earning a Bachelors degree in Baking and Pastry Arts Management.
Education and traveling have helped to create her love for, and understanding of, food and agriculture. She gained professional experience in the industry working in Philadelphia, New York and also had the privilege of working in Napa, California for the pastry chef at one of the few Three-Star Michelin Restaurants in the country (the former Restaurant at Meadowood).
She has a strong passion for flavorful, high-quality and seasonal ingredients, while keeping presentation at the same high standard. This led to the opening of Colavita Confections.
