FAQ:
Who is this lady?
Gina Petitti was born in 1935 in Faeto, Italy. It is in the province of Foggia in the Puglia region of southeast Italy. Her family ran a farm in Italy and she met her husband, Vito, in the same town. In 1970 Gina, Vito, and her 4 children immigrated to America. Gina’s husband passed away in 2012, but she is surrounded by a large family, which includes 9 grandchildren, and lives 5 minutes away from her eldest daughter in New Jersey. Gina enjoys making food for her family in the same old fashion ways as she was taught by her mother and grandmother in Italy, and also new things she has subsequently learned from family and friends in America. She also enjoys gardening, and being an active member of her local Church.
Where does Gina get her recipes?
Most of these recipes are from what she learned growing up in Italy, but some of them have evolved over time. She has also learned new recipes from friends and family in America. She is always eager to try new things.
Why is no one helping her in the video?
Grandma Gina doesn’t want help! Usually, it’s because we will slow her down or not do it “her way.” For the videos we only show her, but when the camera cuts we jump in and help form the cookies or prep for the next step.
Why don’t we buy her a new...?
Grandma Gina has a closet and garage full of new gadgets, spoons, forks, pots, etc… but she doesn’t like them because she is used to doing it with her old tools. She has fun getting her hands dirty!
Who is behind the camera and behind the scenes?
Grandma Gina’s retired son-in-law, Nick, does the filming, editing, production, and channel management. Her daughter, Maria, helps with food preparation, kitchen setup and fan support. Also, Grandma Gina usually has one or two grand-kids in the kitchen to help.
Does Gina read the comments?
We print out and show her how much love she gets from all her viewers, and she is very thankful and hopes you enjoy her cooking! Your comments bring her lots of joy, laughter, and inspiration to make more videos to share with you.
Thank you for watching, we hope you subscribe, and we will see you in our next video!
I come for the Blessings 🙏, singing, and food. This looks like one I can try. Blessings Gina, Thank You
Pizzelle are my guilty pleasure. I can personally eat dozens in a single sitting, even more with a good cup of coffee. May God always bless you Gina.
Me too.
Get this lovely granny to 1million already💗
I remember making these with mom. At first we had ab old pizelle iron that we used on the stove., later she bought an electric one that was so much easier to use. Still eat Pizelles, love them. We used to double the recipe because we had a large family. So many memories watching you Gina. Ty so much for sharing these recipes with us. God Bless
Sent to my Italian daughter in law. Perfect timing - she is making Pizzeles for Christmas. God bless you. You always put a smile on my face.
Late entry. I am buying the machine for my daughter in law
Omg. Thank you SO much for sharing these treasures. Thankful for technological capabilities. Back in the day, grandmas could only leave recipes, but how much better to leave videos of grandma actually making said recipes. And her singing makes this her own. I just love her. Thank you much. Blessings. :)
It's even worse for me because my Grandmother would throw in a handful of this and a smaller handful of that. We only have a couple of recipes because my Aunt literally would grab the bowl and measure what she threw in! Oh how I miss all the day today stuff she made. I wish I paid better attention to what she was throwing in. I was there many times when she cooked, But at that age I wasn't really into caring about cooking. A video would be priceless on many levels! But here's hoping this lovely Nonna is here teaching us for many, many years!!!
I can hardly wait for her to sing..
Blesses my ❤️.
Thank you muchas.
Merry Christmas 🎄
Thank you for sharing this, Nonna Gina. I had a very disheartening day today but just now I made pizzelles with you and it was a comfort to me. I love it when you sing! It puts a smile on my face.
These are my favorite. I make them every Christmas. Thank you ❤️
Gina, I just purchased my prizzele maker. My grand daughter & great grand daughter will visit me Sunday & I plan on using your recipe to make my first batch of PRIZZELES 💕 thank you for making it easy to follow 💕
I was looking for a good pizzelle recipe. I should have known you would have one. Thank you Gina. Blessing of good health and loving family I send to you.
This video was right on time I couldn't find my recipe. God workes in mysterious ways can't wait to use this recipe... Thank you so much...
I just love her. We ate so blessed that you wanted to share such a precious gem with us. GOD BLESS.
You are so adorable and you remind me of my grandmother and mother...People like you are the foundation of life.i wish you health and love.
Omg a gorgeous nonna !! I enjoyed watching this and listening to her sing!!!
You are so Sweet and I love your singing
And your cooking, You are a Blessing.
I just love watching you cook, hearing you sing, just being you. I’ve never used the colored sprinkles before. I think I will try that for Christmas. God Bless You.
Grandma my Italian mother in law used anise seed and melted margarine , she is up in heaven ( im going to try oil instead ) I think of all my wife's family you make a tear in my eye I Love you Joe Lynch
Your an amazing chef !!! I love watching your videos. Please keep making them ❤️❤️
Merry Christmas, Nonna Gina & Family. My Mother would make hundreds of these every Christmas in an assortment of flavors. Orange, Lemon, Vanilla, Anise and Almond & being the youngest of 11 children, I would help in wrapping them in bundles to give to friends & family for Christmas gifts. I do not have one of these irons but I will be looking for one to make your wonderful recipe. Many thanks, Sweetheart. Much Love, Marcella & Les Raup
Who else comes to the channel for the singing? 🖐
But what she says and how she says it it is on high notes also🙂
I do. Got to love it
I come because she remind me of all my lost family. She is a beautiful human. A soul so beautiful it makes me cry.

She is the cutest grandma! Love everything about her! She brings such great energy. Merry Christmas Miss Gina 😘🎄🌲🎄
This was a joy to watch! Your videos are always the best part of my day.
I love Gini!! Last Christmas I made her recipe for cream puffs and they were the best! I’m going to make her recipe from this video. I love hearing her talk and sing. She is a true inspiration.
Grandma you are the most beautiful,happy cook. Your cookies look good and are pretty'
Love to hear you sing while you cook.. Love you and wish you and your family a Merry Christmas'
I use butter instead of oil and anise extract and vanilla instead of almond.
I use oil too.The oil makes a thinner pizzelle
I am so happy watching Gina, I hope she continues to make more videos! Thank you Mama Gina, God bless you always!🙏💕
Cutest grandma ever
As one Nonna to another, you make my heart happy when I watch your videos.
I have made these for my Italian grandfather.
Using Anise was his tradition.
Making some today.....reminds me of him,
L Vilano
Cant wait to make these. Need to dust off my machine. Thank you Nonna!
Che bella che sei nonna Gina ti seguiamo dall'Italia!!!assomigli molto alla mia nonna!!!😘😘😘😘😘
I love her. She is so adorable! Thank you for sharing your recipe with us!
We use anise oil instead of almond. And the seeds as well.
I am enchanted by Gina and her recipes. My mom is gone but was so similar from Sicily. I have mastered pizzelle with the same iron. It’s a good day.
Gina and family happy new year 2021, l enjoy watching your cooking on youtube , All the best from T. F. Hamilton ONT. Canada

Le pizzelle!! Io le ho scoperto con mia cognata che è di un paesino dell Abruzzo che confina con la Puglia!! Gradevolissime!!! Viva la Gina e viva l Italia 🇮🇹 , il paese più bello del mondo! 🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹💚
L'Abruzzo confina con la Puglia??
@@cristianapresutti145 si, sarà il Molise!!!!! Sai quando ho imparato le regioni d Italia 🇮🇹... cara , c’era l Abruzzo-Molise!!!!! Era la stessa cosa!!!!! Diciamo!! Non sembravano due regioni distinte!!! Capito? Cara, io sono grandicella!!!! Capito??
I’m making these Pizzelle tomorrow to give as Christmas cookie gifts. Thanks for your recipe. I have always only used the recipe that come with the machine, but I love everything you make. Thank you Nona Gina🌲💗❤️
I bought this cookie press years ago at a garage sale. I'm going to pull it out of hiding and make these with my friend Nona Gina.
Il canto della stella!!! Che bei ricordi andare in giro nel paesino a cantare con le candele ❤️❤️❤️ grazie mille Nonna Gina
Thank you for your great recipe Ms. Gina!! Just made this exactly according to your recipe. Although I'm using a different machine, it came out delicious. So easy to make. Not overly sweet and made my house smell wonderful. Everyone loved it. It's going to be a regular at our home and we'll always think of you while making it. Thank you.
Hi Gina, I love you! You’re the best!
Looks delicious thank you for sharing
Oh Grandma. I love pizzelles! My grandma made them also--looks like time to get my pizzelle maker out and put it to work. I love them with anise--nice and crunchy but so delicate. We would eat them section by section. Reminds me of a stained glass window. Thanks for sharing your recipe.
Gina, I just really enjoy you! I would love to sit and pass time with you. Thank you so much for all of these recipes!
My very favorite! Thank you for sharing your recipe Grandma Gina❤️
Dear Gina & family, I just love everything you make !! I wish everyone was still there .... they would have loved this with a little bit of black coffee.. but we will love it with American coffee.. like they say.. my parents are Italian Italian, then my generation is American Italian, and the next is American American.. but my kids are American Italian also... my daughter just made some struffoli...the way my family has made it for generations... I made pignoli cookies and Frozen them.. just take them out of the freezer a few hours before you want to eat them and they taste like you just made them I've been doing that for years...Thank you for all the fantastic recipes.. with all my love, Elisa xoxo
We ordered the cookbook and just receive it and are so pleased with it.
LOVE nonna Gina, she reminds me of my nonna. God bless nonna Gina and her family. Baci Bella nonna
I love her so much…making Pizzelles for the Funeral Reception after Mama Russo’s Mass … Precious Lord, Jesus Thank You for Italian Grandmas ❤️🌹📿❣️✝️🙏🏼 7/30/24 Baca Tuti .. Ave Maria 🌹
Gina, you've taught me so much over the years. Thank you for caring
A beautiful lady with a beautiful voice 🎵 Thank you Nonna Gina! Happy Holidays to you and your family. 🎄
She is beautiful and glowing in that yellow apron. I love it.
So happy whenever I see a new or even an old video of Mama Gina!!
What a sweet grandma!!!❤️❤️this recipe looks delicious!! Thank you for sharing!
Due to the Covid, my uncle was not able to make and send his pizzelle this year - so I finally ordered a pizzelle machine and made my own! Lemon (with lemon extract and lemon zest) and chocolate with cocoa powder. Very subtle and tasty. Thank you for the video, watching you make these gave me courage even though the first ones came out a little sloppy. My cousin says it takes practice to know how much to drop from the spoon and where to put it on the iron, but I enjoyed snacking on the extras from the spillover. Hope you and your family had a blessed Christmas and happy healthy 2021 to you!
I love this recipe and the singing - Made my day
I could listen to you sing all day. Buon Natale! :)
Nonna Gina, I enjoy your channel so much. Your singng makes me smile. When I was a child, I learned to make pizzelle with a single hand iron. We called it the Hail Mary iron because you said a Hail Mary for each side. Took forever to make a batch but, the reward was delicious! I wish I still had that iron as a memento. Now, I make pizza old whenever I want. I do the anise pizzelle as well as the almond. God bless you and thank you for teaching and entertaining us with your channell. ❤❤
I’m going to try these for Christmas! Grazie!! Merry Christmas!♥️♥️
You’re amazing. God bless you and your family. Merry Christmas.
Is there anything you cannot make in the kitchen? I'm amazed and admire your baking talents, Gina dear.
Love when you have a new video and I can enjoy your sweet voice and beautiful singing! My Aunt married an Italian and made the most delicious pizzelles with an iron maker on the stove. Thanks to modern small appliances, I have three pizzelle makers for different thicknesses. Love the medium one as cookies don't break as easy. Here is my Aunt's recipe that makes 8 dozen.
Pizzelle (Italian waffle cookie) makes 8 delicious dozens
4 1/2 sticks butter, softened
4 1/2 sticks margarine, softened
3 c white sugar
3 c brown sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1 1/2 tsp salt
14 eggs-separated*
1 1/2 tsp vanilla
8 cups flour
Mix butter, margarine, sugars and vanilla. Beat egg yolks and add vanilla. Beat egg whites and fold into above mixture. Bake in waffle maker or pizzelle maker at medium temperature.
* Sorry, Aunt Margaret, but I have quit separating the eggs and I think the pizzelle still tastes fantastic. I just add the eggs to the sugars and beat. You can make your own decision about the eggs!
This might be the best cookie you have ever tasted!
Omg!!!! My all time favorite.
Thank you!!!
Christmas hugs to Gina! Your singing makes me happy. (Your pizzelles make me hungry!)
LOVE Pizzelle!!! Never knew how to make them. THANK YOU sooo much!!! You are my "go to". Love you, Gina!!!!
Merry Christmas Grandma and Family!
Thank you so much for the great instructional videos - I've been using them with fantastic results.
Gina brings me back to my childhood with my Italian Nana, Carmela LaPenna❤️
You are beautiful, God Bless you & your family!
Hello grandma Gina always a pleasure to see and hear you sing another great recipe I remember when I was younger my dad made them!! God bless you and your family always!!!
I come from an Italian family and every Christmas it was tradition to make pizzelle cookies the only difference is that we ALWAYS used anise oil (licorice flavor) in our cookies because my grandma 👵🏼 told use that anise flavor was the traditional flavor the they used in Italy. I know many people don’t like anise so they will use lemon zest, vanilla, or almond flavor instead.
No, actually, I'm getting ready to open a pizzelle maker my mother bought me about eight years ago and I made sure to have a bottle of anise ready. Maybe somewhere down the line I'll venture out into other flavors but I'm pretty much a purist when I first start something new like this.
how much of the anise oil do you put in?
Beautiful cookies Gina!
I’m glad to see you back at your daughter’s house. It is such a blessing to have your family there for you in times like this.
Merry Christmas!

Buon Natale Gina!! thank you for your video. I enjoy all the tips you give. I have the same machine and this was helpful. You beautiful personality reminds me of my Mom, Zias and Nonna.
I’d appreciate Kate it if you would post the brand and model of your pizelle maker. I had one that didn’t work very well so I got rid of it. I’d love to have another one. Thank you!
Thank you Gina! That,s my next batch of cookies i'm making. Loved the song!. 🤗🤗
Thank you, Miss Gina, for another delightful, delicious video! I will be hinting to my husband that I want a cookie maker like yours for Christmas. May God bless you and your family, and have a very Merry Christmas!🎇🎄❤

💓the foods
💓you, Nona Gina.
I really like your beautiful new countertops, but am trying to get used to a bar replacing the island; a more open floor area, but a longer walk to the refrigerator and oven.
🥂 Here is to your continued health, long life and happiness, Nona Gina, and of your family.
🙏for a Merry Christmas, Wonderful Holidays and New Year.
you are such a sweet lady i hope you have an amazing christmas ❤️❤️
