Gnocchi and only gnocchi
for over 40 years

Company history

Il Pastaio di Brescia was born in 1983 as specialist in manufacturing gnocchi and potatoes specialities, both with its own brand and the private label. From that date, and thanks to a long term stategy, focused on innovation, technology and quality we actually made a revolution in market.

As a leading gnocchi manufacturer, Patarò has always been committed to using the finest ingredients to create high-quality products that meet the expectations of our customers. 

Patarò begins manufacturing fresh gnocchi and distributing its premium product to all of Italy
Fresh Gnocchi has only a 2-day shelf life until Patarò introduced pasteurization to their product. This helped to extend the shelf life of their gnocchi and their distribution throughout Europe begins.
As their distribution expanded, Patarò opened another production facility in Torbole Casaglia, Italy. This brand new, state-of-the-art facility produces 100% gluten-free gnocchi.
As distribution starts to grow worldwide, Patarò realized the need for another production facility which they opened in Berlingo, Italy.
Patarò launches it's line of fresh and fresh stuffed gnocchi to the United States.

Gnocchi originated in Northern Italy during the Roman times in a climate that is ideal for potato farming. So, it is no surprise that Northern Italy is home to Patarò gnocchi. We have been producing gnocchi and only gnocchi for over 40 years. Since 1983 we have been perfecting Patarò Potato Gnocchi by using traditional, ancient methods handed down from generations. Today, we have the most sophisticated and advanced technology to consistently produce our delicate, light, and delicious gnocchi.

But we didn’t stop there. We took it one step further by combining the lightness of our dough with a variety of delicious filling to create our line of stuffed gnocchi products – Italy’s #1 bestselling stuffed gnocchi.

We take great pride in our products, and we are committed to providing our customers with the best possible service.  

It’s our passion, innovation, and quality that sets us apart from all the rest.
