Announcement

Last updated on Jan 4, 2026

Due to unpredictable shipping of late we will no longer offer our Almond Danish Pastry. USPS is unreliable, UPS is much better but not cost effective if shipping to areas outside of the 1-2 day delivery schedule. Please contact us for more info, orders, within VA, MD, PA, NC.
… Also, we continue to experiment with natural Food Coloring in our Seasonal Spritz. We are not quite satisfied with results. We'll keep you posted!
We trust that you'll discover "a little taste of Heaven in every bite" with our distinctively classic baked goods, made with traditional recipes, at Little Neva’s Bakery. Our products are simple, unique and bursting with flavor. We are now shipping with UPS in addition to USPS.

Neva's biscotti's are always delicious. The morning is a delight with them dipped in coffee. I ordered 3 dozen and was amazed how efficiently and beautifully packed they were. Tight. No packing beans. Everything just fitting right.

Excellent beautiful handmade quality, reminiscent of my grandmother's own, but not quite the same. Hers were the best!

Classic Traditional Baked Goods

My German Grandmother taught me how to make buttery spritz cookies using a cookie press and a loving touch.
On my sunny bakery work counter I spend a lot of time rolling out dough, cutting the cookies, filling and having fun!
Our cookies make wonderful additions to weddings, celebrations, parties, gifts, unexpected treats for anyone!
Some cookies are created from my childhood memories, some from simple taste testing and crowd approval!
I love to create yummy cookies. If I can make a product better based on a customer suggestion I relish the challenge!

We bring you traditional baked goods, delightfully simple but good.

After years of baking for restaurants and shops in Florida and Virginia and as my competence with the computer increased, I decided to take my bakery to the web. I create, bake and package all our cookies and other items in our Virginia State Inspected facility independent of my house kitchen and find it so satisfying to 'meet' customers through my Etsy shop and ship my cookies all over the country for all occasions. It is a wonderful experience and extends to me the impetus to be more creative for my customers and the shop.

Many of my cookies are based on favorites that I remember from my youth. I recreate the taste and sensation as I recall. The Jammie collection is definitely a culmination of those days. Soon we will offer a Jammies 6 pack in the shop. We also have other ideas in the making so check back with us often.

I hope to begin a section in the shop offering bakery accessories, non edible but all related to the bakery which I will create on paper or in fabric. The creative hands will be busy after I wash off the flour!

We are pleased that you have chosen to visit our shop and watch us grow! We do hope you are able to sample our cookies along the way!
