Minha família, os Valastros, ganha a vida cozinhando e vendendo praticamente tudo o que você imaginar na Carlo''s Bake Shop. É o que nos torna conhecidos. Mas há um outro lado de nossa família e de nosso relacionamento com a comida, e isso é tão pessoal, e talvez até mais pessoal, do que o que fazemos na confeitaria. Estou falando das receitas e pratos, refeições e tradições que alimentam nossos corpos e almas quando chegamos em casa. Como qualquer outra família, apreciamos relaxar e passar o tempo juntos, e não há jeito melhor de fazer isso ao redor de uma mesa, um lugar que nos mantém ligados e conectados uns aos outros, bem como aos parentes que nos precederam. Sinto-me tão orgulhoso de nosso êxito profissional quanto do fato de sermos capazes de continuar a reservar um tempo para nossa família e nossos parentes mais próximos. E estamos falando de muita gente! E agora me sinto honrado por dividir com vocês as receitas prediletas de minha família e contar-lhes histórias do que as faz tão próximas e queridas. Espero que elas se tornem prediletas também para a família de vocês, que os ajudem a criar lembranças que durem a vida toda, do mesmo modo que fizeram para nós, os Valastros. Buon Appetito! Buddy Valastro

It’s what we’re known for. But there’s another side to our family and our relationship to food, and it’s just as personal, maybe even more personal, than what we do at the bakery. I’m talking about the recipes and dishes, meals and traditions that nourish our bodies and souls when we get home. Just like any other family, we enjoy chilling out and spending time together, and there’s no way we’d rather do that than around a table, a place that keeps us grounded and connected to each other as well as to the relatives who came before us. As proud as I am of our professional success, I’m just as proud that we’ve been able to continue making time for our family and extended family—and we’re talking a lot of people— to meet several times a week and eat together. And now I’m honored to share with you my family’s favorite recipes and to tell you the stories of what makes them so near and dear to our hearts. I hope they might become favorites for your family as well, that they help you create memories to last a lifetime, the same way they’ve done for us Valastros. -- Buon Appetito, Buddy Valastro
