Donna Bell's Bake Shop: Recipes and Stories of Family, Friends, and Food

The heartwarming story of how NCIS star Pauley Perrette and her two best friends created a Southern-style bake shop in Manhattanâ€”a celebration of love and friendship with gorgeous photographs and delicious recipes.

Nestled in the heart of midtown New York is a little shop with a big story. An all-natural bake shop that specializes in Southern baked goods, Donna Bellâ€™s is owned by Pauley Perrette, the actress who plays Abby Sciuto on CBSâ€™s NCIS, and her two best friends, Darren Greenblatt and Matthew Sandusky. It was named in honor of Pauleyâ€™s late mother, who is the beloved inspiration for everything they bake.

It all started in 1993, when Pauley met Darren in New York Cityâ€™s Hellâ€™s Kitchen, just blocks away from where the shop is currently located. The two became inseparable friends and Pauleyâ€™s Southern mom would welcome Darren to their home with mouthwatering treats. Darren loved this food and soon left his successful career in fashion to open a food truck that sold Southern desserts at the Jersey Shore. Eventually he wanted to expand and turned to Pauley and their friend Matthewâ€”who worked in the Los Angeles food industryâ€”for help. Soon Matthew was on his way to New York to open Donna Bellâ€™s Bake Shop with Pauley and Darren.

With recipes for favorites like buttermilk biscuits, chocolate chip-almond scones, and peach streusel muffins; personal photographs from Pauley, Darren, Matthew, and Donna Bell herself; this is the story how one fantastic bake shop brings warmth and happinessâ€”one treat at a timeâ€”to the urban jungle that is New York City.
