Zuccarello

It was Lorenzo Zuccarello’s passion for chocolate which gave rise to this craft business, a reference point for fine chocolate and high-quality patisserie since 2001. After years of study and experience in Italy and abroad, Lorenzo has created a workshop where tradition, creativity and select ingredients meet. With his sister Valentina, Lorenzo makes craft pralines, single-origin bars and Mito Azteco (Aztec Myth) with cacaos from different parts of the world, as well as spumoni, ice cream desserts, in a number of different flavours, cakes, semifreddos and tarts. Standout specialities include the celebrated cioccolatini della Certosa, filled with rum or hazelnuts and coated with plain chocolate, a homage to the city of Collegno. In summer the range is rounded off by fruit jellies and Frutta Realistica, or Realistic Fruit, three-dimensional creations that faithfully reproduce natural fruit and shells with mousse, gelée and ganache inside. Also available ice cream in a variety of flavours, some lactose-free and vegan-friendly. All for a production range that combines local identity, craft skill and constant experimentation.
