Our Story:
My husband, Richie Robinson started his career as a buyer of furniture for major department stores, and I, Florie Robinson have an art background with schooling at The Fashion Institute of Technology and The Pratt Institute in NYC. In 1976, Richie and I pooled our business and artistic talents and opened the highly successful Frame Center in Smithtown, NY and soon after, the Landing Gallery next door. I had a special knack for creating and baking delicious & unique baked goods and gourmet pastries from scratch. Many of our friends and customers encouraged us to go into the baking business and share these wonderful and delicious treats with others. In 1993 we transitioned from picture framing into the gourmet bakery business, and are now celebrating our 30th year at Florieās Finales and the 20th year at our new Nesconset location. In the spring of '04, our son Mike moved down to NY from Boston with his wife, Michelle to join in our business and help Richie design and construct our beautiful new facility in Nesconset. Unfortunately, an illness that Richie had been fighting for 2+ years had re-occurred. Throughout the very busy holiday season of '04 Richie worked long hours 7 days a week while undergoing chemotherapy treatments for t-cell lymphoma. On February 23rd of '05 my husband, my partner & my best friend succumbed to lymphoma after a long and valiant fight and passed away. We continue on with Richie always being in our hearts. With a staff of 15-35 (depending on season) creative people we are able to satisfy with care all orders from small and personal to large corporate orders. Our Customers Satisfaction is always guaranteed!!!
