The Elmhurst retail location of Lezza Spumoni & Desserts is celebrating its 10th year in the Chicago suburb, Food Industry News reported. The bakery started in Chicago’s Little Italy with a spumoni recipe brought from Italy by Salvatore Lezza in 1905. The business, which eventually moved to suburban Bellwood due to the need for more space, was later run by Salvatore’s son Victor. Today the business is in the hands of Ed Lezza Sr. (the family’s third generation) and nephew Louis (fourth generation). Opened in 2015, the Elmhurst store also features a cake-tasting room and a coffee bar that serves the Italian brand Lavazza. Production remains in Bellwood. For more, click here.
