After graduating from the Culinary Institute of America, both Salvatore and Anthony knew they wanted a share in the family trade. The three partners now employ eleven workers and service a wide variety of clientele. They specialize in French and Italian pastries and cater to weddings, birthdays, special occasions, and holidays. Circo's Pastry Shop Is the only one on Knickerbocker Ave that reminds people of the "Old Neighborhood." The stores, "Old Fashioned touch, " is so appealing the even a few movies were filmed in it. Pierdipino pledges Circo's commitment to it's customers. "We will always make a good product and extent that touch of personal service." If you're a chocolate fan or just in the mood for something sweet, the trip to Circo's is worth it. Nino Pierdipino and Michele Vinci joined Circo in his pastry shop. By 1973 Circo decided to let his two best bakers, Pierdipino and Vinci, buy him out. With a combined total of eighty years experience between them, Nino Pierdipino and Michele Vinci became partners. They carried out the business for 32 years until Vinci sold his share to Pierdipino. As an eleven-year-old boy in Sicily, Pierdipino worked in a pastry shop baking pastries. In 1966 He moved from Italy to Bushwick, NY. Now Pierdipino runs the bakery with his two sons Salvatore and Anthony.
