The love from which they are born is that of the art of patisserie, actually for the art of nutrition through pastry recipes. The Duca d’Alba collection of pastries and biscuits has its roots in a craftsman’s desire to rediscover the flavours which in the Langhe confectionary tradition titillate the palate without loading the digestion.

In the name Duca d’Alba there is a lengthy research and a passionate study of all types of cereals, sugars, suitable shapes for cupboards and modern diets alike, together with the awareness of ancient wellness rules: natural ingredients and controlled spices for a tasty consistency which makes balance a virtue.

To maintain home-made care and patience in an impatient market, Piedmont confectionery has chosen the Grondona family, a name that from the beginning of the 19th century has been tied to the culture of food quality and the respect for slow processes (for research, production, in the selection of its suppliers) even for the industrial process.

For the Grondona family, who has taken the traditions of Liguria worldwide whilst safeguarding the ancient recipes, extending its competence to the Duca d’Alba products has meant giving free rein to its creativity in a lab full of different flavours and new recipes which never stops cooking up new ideas.
