The Stracchino cheese, the finely Chopped Tomatoes and the Flour are all Italian

The Stracchino cheese used to make our Focaccia with Cheese is produced with high quality Italian cows’ milk, which comes from selected farms only. A creamy cheese of delicate taste, 100% natural and rich in milk enzymes, it is delivered fresh every day to our production site.

The finely chopped tomatoes are obtained from a selection of Italian fresh ripe tomatoes cultivated in respect of nature, without the use of any GMO.

A flour called Manitoba is traditionally used to make the Focaccia with cheese, for it’s a “strong” flour which helps the dough to keep its elasticity. Despite Manitoba flour being usually made with Canadian wheat, the one we use is 100% Italian. In fact, in way to shorten the distribution chain,  our Supplier has made a careful selection of local wheats, and has therefore created a flour which is strong enough, but made with Italian wheat only.
