A great passion and the use of excellent ingredients are the simple secrets behind the deliciousness of Mario Fongo’s crispy artisan treats.
Embedded in the little town of Rocchetta Tanaro since 1945 as “il panaté” (the village baker), Mario uses a short list of ingredients sourced exclusively within Italy: a unique mixture of strong flours selected in collaboration with local millers, organic extra virgin oil (or lard), water, salt and yeast, with no preservatives or other additives.
Enjoy Mario’s unmistakable Mother-in-Law’s Tongues (delicious crusty flatbreads) and individually-rolled grissini breadsticks in full-length or mini versions, produced in different flavours to recall the aromas of Mediterranean cuisine—or select a luscious chocolate-covered mini-breadstick for a sophisticated dessert treat!
