"Our initial focus was family-oriented products, and when I say family, I'm talking about family like an Italian, meaning your neighbors, your co-workers. Our birthday cakes were $40 and we lowered them to $30. Our coffee cake rings were another focus, because it's a South Philly tradition to always have cake at the table when you invite company over. Our coffee cakes were $25. It got out of hand, so we lowered that to $15."
"Termini Bros is founded and based on being a neighborhood business. Through the years - and especially over the last 12 months - the overhead of our business has increased drastically: things such as insurance, our contribution to our employees' health insurance, taxes."
Termini Bros, a century-old bakery in Philadelphia, has reduced prices on several popular items to maintain its community-oriented approach. Birthday cakes were reduced from $40 to $30, coffee cakes from $25 to $15, and pound cakes from $18 to $12. The bakery aims to preserve its neighborhood roots while managing increased overhead costs, including insurance and employee health contributions. This decision reflects a commitment to keeping baked goods affordable for local families and friends.
