"A passion for the best ingredients"

Water, sugar and flour

Mauro Morandin has grown up among the perfumes of the pastry shop founded by his father Rolando and the taste of excellence. Since he was a young boy he has cultivated his passion for the best ingredients.

He has decided to work following the tradition and the ancient wisdom: he has chosen machineries of the past, and has learnt how to restructure them piece by piece. For each product developed he has identified recipes and artisanal production methods.

Tradition

Our sweets are born in Saint-Vincent

Our sweets are born between the white and the green of Valle d’Aosta

Our Torcetti, Tegole, Genepy pralines and our Panciucco with Malvasia passita La Crotta du Vigneron… they all tell about the identity of our region.

We start from the great classics of fresh confectionery, like beignets and cannoli, and we recreate them in an original way. We enhance Italian excellences, like oranges from Calabria, which are candied. We take inspiration from French iconic pastry products, like macarons and eclairs. We prepare them every day with care and attention, like it was used to do in the past.

Neither preservatives nor additives are present. Only genuine ingredients, for the benefit of body and soul.
