Overview

Baratti & Milano is an Italian confectionery and café brand whose history began in 1858 in Turin, when Ferdinando Baratti and Edoardo Milano opened a pastry laboratory. The brand's café has been described as Turin's refined salon since 1875. Its classic product line includes Cremino, a three-layer praline combining gianduja chocolate and hazelnut cream, along with chocolates, gianduiotti, and Nocciolato 1858.

History

In 1858, Turin was experiencing exceptional economic development while Prime Minister Cavour worked toward Italian unification. In this setting, the pastry laboratory of two young confectioners, Ferdinando Baratti and Edoardo Milano, became notable. A few years later, their laboratory moved to the newly built Galleria dell'Industria Subalpina. Since 1875, the brand's café has been described as Turin's sweetest and most refined salon.
