The passion for producing handcrafted and genuine products is a precious gift from our parents. We are Ezio and Rocco Calciano, and our bakery-pastry shop is a good 40 years old. We are located in Tricarico, a small town a few kilometers from Matera, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This is our starting point: the link with our land and our origin. Each of our products is made according to a totally artisanal tradition, free of semi-finished products and preservatives. Leavening, completely natural and without brewer's yeast, is very slow. It far exceeds the normal fermentation hours, reaching about seventy-five hours for the complete baking of the product, to which another twelve hours are added for cooling at room temperature. The choice of raw materials is decisive in obtaining a quality product, but it is important that it is supported by constantly updated skills and an efficient laboratory. Our artisan production offers traditional cakes of the highest quality, perfect for any occasion. Among our specialties, you can find soft and fragrant Panettone and Colomba cakes, made according to recipes handed down through the ages, bringing the authentic flavors of the holidays to your tables.
