The story of the Quaranta family's nougat begins in Caravaggio in 1924, birthplace of the famous painter Michelangelo Merisi, known as "Il Caravaggio". Almost a century of tradition and dedication. The founder Antonio Quaranta, together with his wife Alzira, was a passionate artisanal producer of nougat and other typical, traditional sweets from Cremona and Bergamo, including cotton candy, brittle and the special nougat with carob honey. A small laboratory in the heart of Caravaggio was the place that gave birth to the recipe book reporting precise details on amounts and ingredients, some of which are still used in production nowadays: after almost 100 years, our original "White nougat 101" almond soft nougat's recipe has never changed!
We were the first and passionate creators of the Nougat Passion concept: starting from the original recipe written in 1925 by the founder Antonio Quaranta we created a new and seductive idea of nougat: combine - with artisan passion - real pastry creams, jams, biscuits and much more to the cozy softness of our nougat.
Even the packaging and the presentation of these products has followed this intuition renewing itself in an attractive, minimal and effective guise.
