Old-fashioned sweetness

There are colours and scents so sweet in mind to awake childhood memories. Such overwhelming shades to fill in our soul. Such unexpected flavours to hand down to us incredible stories of a past time. That's how Pastiglie Leone introduces new Retrochic tins.

Available in 6 different flavours (violet, liquorice, mint, lemon, mixed berries, mixed flavours) these old-fashioned candies keep on sweetening the smile of the gluttonous of all ages.

Summer chocolate

Sabadì Modican Chocolate
Who said summer means no chocolate??!? It must have been someone who didn't know Modican chocolate! Made in Sicily, in the lovely town of Modica, Modican chocolate is prepared since 1600 following an ancient Aztec recipe. This traditional chocolate can be eaten in the summer without melting in your hands like ordinary chocolate,  thanks to the unique cold working process. My favourite Modican chocolate is the one produced by Sabadì,  a young brand which chose excellent National Fino de Aroma cocoa and selected raw materials (such as Interdonato lemon, Ciaculli late mandarin, Sicilian red orange, handcrafted Trapani fleur de sel, Sarawak white pepper, mascobado sugar) that come from fair trade producers and Slow Food Presidia with respect for small producers, the environment and biodiversity.
