Are you an early riser or do you prefer to sleep in? The folks at Calandra’s Bakery wake up before the sun rises to bake fresh bread and made-from-scratch pastries just for you. You’ll want to visit one of its three locations soon.

Calandra's Bakery got its start in 1962 when the Newark location opened. Luciano Calandra, an Italian immigrant, worked hard to establish the bakery, and now it's a thriving business with three locations.

Luciano's sons joined the business, and today, the Newark location covers 50,000 square feet. The Fairfield location also has authentic Italian pastries...

These Italian custard donuts, Nutella donuts, and cannoli donuts are just a few of the treats in store for you.
The pastry case is full to the brim with cannolis, eclairs, brownies, cookies, tarts, and more.
