Italian Confectionary Made In The Traditional Way

The producer of all our candied fruit confections were only founded in 1998, but is based on a family tradition working fruit and particularly local figs for of over 50 years as handed down through generations. They base production on the high quality of the fruit, which is constantly checked during processing and directly monitored in the orchards. They drying and packaging process is also managed stringently to ensure true Calabrian confectionary traditions are upheld

The company is in the stewardship of two brothers, Antonio & Franco, who decided that the recipes passed down from their Grandparents were just too good to keep to themselves and set out to share these Calabrian delicacies with the wider world.
