BLAUVELT, NY — Amazon Logistics announced it will be opening a new delivery station in Rockland County, in an effort to speed up “last mile” operations.

This is one of two locations coming to the Hudson Valley region – another delivery station will be located in New Windsor. The Rockland location will be in Blauvelt on Oritani Drive. The station is expected to open by the end of 2020.

Amazon said that “the stations will create thousands of full-time and part-time jobs, paying a minimum of $15 per hour, and offering a variety of benefits packages for employees.” There are currently more than 150 Amazon delivery stations in the United States.

Amazon spokesperson Emily Hawkins said: “We are excited to continue to invest in the state of New York with a new delivery station that will provide efficient delivery for customers, and create hundreds of job opportunities for the talented workforce.”

The online retail giant said that the delivery stations allow “entrepreneurs the opportunity to build their own business delivering Amazon packages, as well as independent contractors the flexibility to be their own boss and to create their own schedule delivering for Amazon Flex.

For La Casa Di Dolce owner Jaclyn Ryan-Henry, baking is more than a business—it is a way of preserving family traditions and sharing her Italian heritage with the Rockland County community.

Drawing inspiration from her upbringing in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn, Ryan-Henry has built a loyal following through authentic Italian baked goods crafted from recipes passed down through generations, including treasured family recipes from her Nonna.

Operating from her home bakery, La Casa Di Dolce offers a wide variety of traditional Italian specialties, including Cuccidati (Italian fig cookies), biscotti di casa, crostata, struffoli, bow tie cookies, seven-layer cookies, and seven-layer cakes. Customers can also choose from an assortment of modern dessert favorites, including cupcakes, cake pops, crumb cakes, sugar cookies, cake jars, and custom-designed layer cakes.

In addition to individual orders, Ryan-Henry provides catering services, party trays, and mobile dessert bars complete with dessert table setup and décor for weddings, birthdays, showers, and other special events.

One of the bakery’s most sought-after creations is its signature viral seven-layer pignoli cookie, a unique dessert that combines the flavors of traditional seven-layer cookies and pignoli cookies into one indulgent treat. The oversized cookie features a jam-filled center, almond-rich dough, pine nuts, and a chocolate-dipped finish.

Ryan-Henry is believed to be the first baker in the Tappan area to offer the seven-layer pignoli cookie as a permanent menu item, helping the specialty dessert gain popularity among local customers and Italian pastry enthusiasts.

Due to high demand, customers are encouraged to place orders in advance, particularly for specialty and signature items.

By blending old-world recipes with modern entrepreneurship, Ryan-Henry continues to provide authentic Italian baked goods while creating a gathering place for celebrations, family traditions, and community connections throughout Rockland County.
