Forno Canapa di Bruschi Ivana In Firenze

When you enter this narrow aromatic bakery, you will notice the sticker by the door, recognizing this forno (bakery) as one of Firenze’s historical gems. You can see into the kitchen where all of this magic happens. The glass cases were filled with every type of Italian bread, as well as sweet pastries such as Sfogliatella, Bomboloni, and Florentine Orange Cake, among many others. There are sandwiches and mini pizzas. We could have stayed all day. Forno Canapa di Bruschi Ivana is a forno, owned and operated by Ivana Bruschi. The bakery was opened in 1930. We believe the proprietor was Ida Gabellini Canapa. Ivana started working for Ida Gabellini Canapa in 1958. The forno had been in business for quite some time with the Canapa name, ideally located two minutes from the Central Market. In 1966, Ida decided to retire, and Ivana took the leap to purchase the business. Just six months after opening under the new name, tragedy struck. A devastating flood swamped Florence. Ivana and her family pressed on, and Forno Canapa di Bruschi Ivana was reopened ten days later.

lots of vegan options and very sweet staff ! the focaccia was amazing

Delicious authentic Italian baked goods and the staff speak English. Wonderful experience

Small place nestled in the middle of huge buildings full of history, the people who work there bring it to life, the products speak of the territory. Between a joke and a smile. Excellent experience.

The best cookies you’ll eat in Florence!!!

Lots of choice of products, excellent quality especially for the focaccia

Unfortunately, I tried it too late. The lemon tarts were sensational. And the conversation about "Otto" was perfect. It's the Italian 8 and a dog's name. A man's name here in Austria. A huge recommendation from the bottom of my heart 💚🤍❤️

Visited here early one morning. The staff were very friendly and made great suggestions. Accepts card payments. The best chocolate cornetto!

Ci sono stato con i miei amici, le signore che ci hanno servito erano molto simpatiche e cordiali, le frittelle di riso erano molto buone, consigliato.

Personale molto gentile, prodotti ottimi, anche se leggermente cari. L'impressione che se ne ha è di un posto denso di storia. A noi sono stati offerti molti assaggi, per cui, presi dall'entusiasmo, abbiamo chiesto una grandissima quantità di prodotti ma, non essendo stati chiari fin dall'inizio sul prezzo, abbiamo realizzato l'entità della spesa solo alla fine, e non ce la siamo sentiti di chiedere di alleggerire i sacchetti che erano già stati sigillati. A parte questo, un ottima esperienza.
