Forty-four years of experience, technique and in-depth research into ingredients – here we have the secret of the success of Mariella Droetto and Fabrizio Martella, who never cease to amaze us at their three points of sale: one a traditional bakery, the other two dedicated to those who suffer from food intolerances.
In Chieri, Dolci e Dolci is the place to go if you’re looking for top-quality traditional Piedmontese confectionery: be sure to try the focaccia dolce, also available spread with confectioner’s custard, filled with peaches and amaretti or chocolate and pears. Following the seasons, they also produce cakes and semifreddos, and their Sacher and Piemontesina are particularly popular. Breakfast brioches come in 15 different typologies and the savoury pastry range features canapés and tartlets filled with local delicacies (such as lardo and chestnuts or robiola and saffron) and filled olive, beetroot, hazelnut and panini, suitable for buffets and special drink receptions.
Since 2010 Mariella has diversified production by giving life to two Chicchisani workshops in which she produces gluten-, allergen- and lactose-free items without losing flavour and flavour. The traditional sweet and savoury pastry has now been supplemented by Bisc8, a new line of biscuits in four different versions, and Godò, a gianduja, hazelnut and cocoa cake for eating on the move.
