Almost as well known as Sally’s & Pepe’s Apizza on Wooster Street, the family owned and operated  Libby’s Italian Pastry Shop also garners lines of customers for their cookies, pies, and Italian ices.  Now that they’ve launched a website, you have a chance, no matter where you live, to try a local favorite — without waiting in long lines!

And today — Thursday, November 8th — for 4 days, Groupon is offering a special discount deal on Libby’s desserts.  There are only a limited amount of discount vouchers being offered, so if you want it – buy it NOW!

Here’s the Groupon deal:  Customers can order online to choose from a range of treats such as chocolate caramel apples ($10); 1-pound boxes of cookies such as apricot dolce, truffle-filled chocolate chip, and raspberry fingers ($12); and 1-pound boxes of biscotti in flavors such as chocolate almond, maple walnut, and pumpkin ($12).

Libby’s Italian Pastry Shop ships anywhere throughout the United States and Canada; this Groupon cannot be applied toward shipping costs.
