PASTICCERIA ANDREA PANSA
The history of this company is naturally interwoven with the vicissitudes of a family that has proudly guided it for five generations. Founded in 1830 by Andrea Pansa, the Pastry has kept unchanged the fascination conveyed by the nineteenth-century furnishing which still smells of the essence of the Fathers, among those gilded mirrors that still reflect the images of famous people like Ibsen, Wagner, Longfellow and Quasimodo, below the elongated cruises heritage of past glories.
In February 2001 Pansa received the prestigious recognition of the registration of the cultural association of the Historical Premises of Italy, because it is rightly considered one of the oldest confectionery production and tasting of the Amalfitan region.

We had this wine, along with a Bottle of the same house's Biancolella
and Casa Ambra Aglianico with our dinner we made at Cassa Sorrento, the beautifuk apartment with a lovely garden we rented on Via Capo, Sorrento, Italy.
The dinner was with my Cousin Antony Bellino, and cousins Marta and Mimo from Salerno and our friend Alan from Lodi. Marta and Mimo served their Mozzarella di Bufala (from their Mozzarella Fattoria in Salerno), they also made tasty Ricotta Ravioli with Black Truffles shaved on top. We also ate Salami and Pecorino, and I made Lamb Chops with roast potatoes for the main. For dessert, Mimo and Marta made fresh Strawberries with Limoncello and walnuts. It was an amazing dinner, and one I'll always cherish.
