Intro

We are the Delacruz Pastry.

Started in the early 60's, we originated the Chamorro dessert called apigigi.
Through trial and error, Antonio Villagomez Castro (familian Marceliano) created what's now known as apigigi for his ailing wife, Veronica Santos Castro (familian Lencho). Their eldest child, Maria Santos Castro, married to Manuel Tenorio Delacruz (familian Aniguac), carried on the recipe and created The Delacruz Pastry. Now run by their daughter, Consolacion DLC. Torres and family, we continue on with our family legacy and tradition to sustain our Chamorro culture. 

Located in Susupe village in Saipan, we also participate as vendors in Tuesday Farmer's Market, Thursday Garapan Street Market, and Saipan Sabalu Farmer's Market.
To place orders you can reach us at (670) 234-6978.
Or visit us at our kitchen in Susupe.
