THUNDER BAY — If Nancy Mauro knows the recipe for the Persian, the famous sweet bun slathered with tasty pink icing, she's not prepared to admit it.
"There is a chapter where one of the characters is creating the Persian. That I invented myself, so all secrets are safe," she told TBnewswatch in an interview.Her family is still in Thunder Bay, so she visits on a regular basis.The publisher describes it as "A deliciously comedic family melodrama about an imploding social media star, a small-town Italian bakery, the treachery of fame, and the pink-frosted pastry at the heart of it all.
"I was a little too young to remember much about the bakery, but I had always heard stories of where it came from, and how it got its name and so on. That led to some research, then I turned the story into a work of fiction," she said. As Mauro describes the story, in unravelling the secret of the Persian the main character also ends up unravelling her family's history and the true reason a decision was made to move from Italy to Northwestern Ontario.Mauro is getting lots of positive feedback from people who've already picked it up.
