Our Story

I'm Don, passionate baker and owner of Nuxe Bakery. Dr Seuss' book "Oh the places you'll go" was written for me..... I'm sure of it. Ever since childhood, I've always chosen the unconventional path, swum upstream and dreamt big. And it's all Bruno's fault...

You see Bruno was my highly adventurous, entrepreneurial and yoga-loving 96 year-old Italian granfather (Nonno), who lived life like he meant it until the very end. He reinvented himself many times over and instilled in me a love of adventure, business and all things Italian. Bruno taught me that food is life-sustaining, and that deliciousness comes from the finest real ingredients, sun-ripened fruit and nuts, and that less sugar means more place for flavour.

I remember the first time I tasted biscotti with Bruno. I was about 6 years old and we were at his friends deli for lunch. He bought a bag of home-made biscotti as a gift for my Gran. I distinctly remember him asking for an extra one for me, and his gentle but wrinkled hands passing me a biscotto. The biggest smile came over both our faces the moment I tasted the crunch of the semi-dried biscuit give way to the subtle sweetness of the dried fruit, nuts and spices and the lingering, velvety smoothness of chocolate morsels. In that moment I knew biscotti and I would be lifelong friends.

So you see, wanting to give everyone the best quality, delicious treats and biscotti really is in my Italian genes. I must have baked over 10,000 batches of biscotti and other treats since then and I still love making them!

After a long career in the corporate sector, I've taken a leap of faith into the entrepreneurial world of food by embarking on a journey to make the tastiest treats in the world, and convince every Australian to fall in love with quality.

I hope you love them as much as I do!
