Wish I saw this sooner. We host an altar at my house for wife's family (Big Italians) and she makes about 400 for the family and sells the rest for i think 8$ a dozen. Don't even know what they cost at a store. She usually makes a bunch for thanksgiving and xmas also.

These are the best. Now, I really admire the humongous elaborate altars that parishes do, however, my heart is with my ancestors and I LOVE the in-home altars. All my great aunts had them.
I hope you find your homemade cookies, baw. Brocato's are good when you're in a real pinch, but they ain't ya mama's or your grandma's.

Rouses definitely sells these. I buy them all the time. I grew up several houses from Mr. Angelo and his sons, & daughter.

Do they have any “alters” of these altars that have beignets?

Most Blessed Sacrament had a great St. Joseph's Altar this year.

but my best guess is Our Lady of Mercy.
Father Cleo is the man and if any church has them it would be his.

My guess would be Anthony’s on Government or Monjunis on Jefferson.
They’re both restaurants, but have Italian groceries.
