Our latest Matilde Vicenzi shipment brings a great new products—a very special strawberry version of Vicenzi’s famous ladyfingers, that indispensable element of a good tiramisù.
For a company with such a long tradition—stretching back to 1905—Matilde Vicenzi loves to walk a fine line between traditional pastry craftsmanship and breathtaking innovation.
Our Alcurnia peaches are back! These sun-ripened Murcian peaches, carefully selected and packed at peak ripeness, are huge, firm, juicy, and just the right level of sweet—sunshine in a can. Whether to serve up as a breakfast or dessert, roast or grill, bake into a cobber, or just eat straight from the tin, it’s hard to find a better canned peach than Alcurnia.
Our La Fiammante tomatoes have arrived—including plain and basil passata and the La Reale tomato paste, which will be great news to all those customers who have been patiently waiting.
As promised, our Spanish Christmas container has arrived. Well, one of them. Gourmet hamper treats from La Chinata and Don Gastronom are still a few days out, but we’ll give you a sneak peek here too.

Looking for lighter-weight summer drinks? Our low-alcohol Rojito spritzer is always a standout, and we also have a whole range of non-alcohol drinks—from Sicilian sodas and cold teas and organic nectars from Italy’s Po Valley to sparkling mineral water from Lombardy. Oh, and Portuguese teas and Italian espresso too, in case you were wondering.
We’ve just unpacked a shipment of the amazing Mauri Gorgonzola and Taleggio cheeses from Valsassina—renowned as the “Valley of Cheese”—in northern Italy. It arrived by air so it’s beautifully fresh, and it’s also available in both wholesale and retail packaging.
We’re all stocked up again with pomegranate molasses and tahini–so if you’ve been waiting, now is your chance.
Container alert: we have a couple of containers steaming into port this week, so it will be all systems go at the warehouse!
