Italians are all very proud of their regional traits and fiercely protective of their local food traditions. Yet, panettone has managed to overcome regional boundaries to become a truly national cake. It is the star of Christmas both in Italy and at Carluccio's.
Pane in Italian simply means bread. That’s why so many of our cakes have ‘pan’ in their name, and why we always say that a panettone is “part bread, part cake”.
Our Italian bakers only make Panettone between September & December, so even if we wanted to stock it all year round, we can’t — and that’s what makes them so special.
We're proud of our authentic coffee, which is roasted exclusively for us in Italy. It's the same special coffee that you can enjoy in Carluccio's restaurants, with regional varieties to suit all tastes.
Our drinking chocolate comes direct from Italy too, inspired by the 'caffes' in Torino.
Whether its wine hampers, regionally-themed meal hampers or a selection of sweet treats, we have many hampers to match your gifting needs.
All hampers are expertly curated and lovingly packed into one of our FSC-approved gift hampers.
Sun-kissed vegetarian sauces from Puglia, Wild Boar Ragu from Tuscany, fiery 'Nduja from Calabria — we have a fantastic range of sugo, pesto and ragu here.
All our sauces are made in the regions of Italy, by small, family-run producers, many of whom we have known for decades. As you would expect, the quality is exceptional.
Whether making a light super, or a huge family feast, if doing it the Italian way, it’s rare that pasta or rice won’t feature.
From creamy risottos to rich, baked al forno — pasta and rice dishes can be as simple or as complex as you choose to make them.
By using the best ingredients you can buy, you will always be off to a good start…
Italians have a biscuit for every time of day. The early morning cappuccino, the mid-morning espresso, the mid-afternoon pick-me-up, the after-dinner glass of vin santo – they’re all better with the right biscuit or cake!
Our authentic sweet Italian treats will have you salivating - take a look for yourself.
At the centre of any Italian store cupboard are high quality oils and vinegars.
Our Carluccio's extra virgin olive oil is from Calabria, handpicked and cold pressed within hours of harvest.
Our balsamic vinegars are from Modena in Emilia - Romagna. We have two different styles, from a mature, full bodied vinegar perfect for dressings, marinades or dipping with oil to a dense, thick, syrupy and silky vinegar for use on special recipes and a great accompaniment to parmesan cheese.
Whatever your tastes, you’re sure to find a premium and authentic addition to your larder here.
Antipasti are the delicious snacks served before almost every Italian meal. Products like succulent sun-dried tomatoes, artichokes hearts harvested and jarred for freshness in a day, exceptional peranzana olives from an ancient Puglian estate. Enjoy all the above with our fine selection of breadsticks and crackers.
