The story
Non Solo Pane, a bakery on Corso Alessandro Salamano in Vercelli, holds a solid 4.6-star rating, but creator Franchino Er Criminale offers a more measured take. In his “Forni criminali VERCELLI” review, he notes the place has potential for an 8/10 but landed at a 7/10 after being served pastries that were not fresh. He specifically calls out the apple pastry as good, a bright spot in an otherwise uneven visit.
The menu includes a Focaccia Bianca, a Focaccia Mozzarella e Pomodoro, a Sfoglia con le Mele (likely the apple pastry he praised), and a Ciambella Spaccata con Crema. It's a no-frills local spot where execution on freshness can make or break the experience—a reminder that even promising bakeries must stay consistent.

A bakery with potential for 8/10 but served old pastries, so it's a 7/10. The apple pastry is good.
Dishes mentioned
- Focaccia
Focaccia Mozzarella e Pomodoro
This one is in a foil tray, the cheese barely melted, it's cold and a bit enemy. The white one is better. This is a 6/10, just to fill you up.
Sfoglia con le Mele
This is the interesting thing. The pastry is flaky, with apple and cinnamon on top. It reminds me of my aunts' cooking from over fifteen years ago. Simple like the old days. Really good.
Ciambella Spaccata con Crema
The cream is very soft and runny, but the dough is hard and stale. It's been sitting for too many hours. The ones in front looked better, but they gave me the old ones from the back.
