San Giorgio Sorrisini are raw, pre-risen frozen mini pastries of 25 g, assorted in 6 flavours, supplied in a 4 kg case and baked straight from frozen in minutes. They let bars, hotels and patisseries serve a fresh, made-on-the-spot sweet display all day, while keeping waste low thanks to bake-on-demand.
What Sorrisini are
Sorrisini are a line of Italian mini viennoiserie: small, bite-sized pre-risen pastries with a soft, fragrant crumb and a smooth filling. The 25 g format makes them ideal for breakfast, coffee breaks, brunch and buffets, where guests like to taste several specialities in small portions rather than a single large piece.
The producer: San Giorgio
The Sorrisini are produced by San Giorgio S.p.A. in Castel San Giorgio, in the province of Salerno (Campania, southern Italy). The company started in 1980 as a small pastry workshop and has grown into a recognised name in the Italian frozen bakery sector. Production follows the UNI EN ISO 9001:2015 quality standard and an HACCP self-monitoring system; the doughs are made without hydrogenated fats and with natural yeast.
Six assorted flavours
Each 4 kg case combines six fillings so a single purchase covers a varied display: cream, cocoa, apricot, sour cherry, apple and forest fruits. The assortment lets you rotate a colourful breakfast offer without managing several separate references.
Sensory profile
After baking, every Sorrisino is soft and airy inside and golden on the surface. The pre-risen dough develops a light, fragrant texture in the oven, while the fruit and cream fillings stay smooth and clearly recognisable. Aroma and taste are typical of freshly baked Italian sweet pastries.
Professional uses
Bake straight from frozen following the instructions on the package label, with no need to thaw first. Serve them on the breakfast buffet of hotels and bed-and-breakfasts, in the morning display of bars and cafes alongside espresso and cappuccino, as a sweet bite for coffee breaks and brunch, on catering and banqueting trays, and as an impulse item next to the till. Because they bake on demand, you can prepare only the quantity you need at each service.
Storage and handling
Keep the product frozen at a temperature no higher than minus 18 C and maintain the cold chain at every stage. Do not refreeze the product once thawed. Highlight allergens to your guests according to EU Regulation 1169/2011, as sweet bakery products of this type typically contain cereals with gluten, milk and eggs; always check the single-pack label for the exact declaration.
