Caracciolo

Caracciolo – an artisan workshop since 1965. Giovanni Caracciolo and Caterina Laganà opened their workshop in Brancaleone, on the Ionian coast of Calabria. Their passion: almond paste, almond drinks, nut spreads, and truffle nuts – all for ice cream parlors and pastry shops. Later, Amandula was born. A line of products that are the result of careful selection of raw materials and expert craftsmanship. No artificial flavors, only authentic taste. Strict food safety controls ensure that all the beneficial properties of the almonds are preserved. Calabria, as it tastes.

Caracciolo –
Calabria in almond shape, since 1965

On the Ionian coast of Calabria, in Brancaleone , Giovanni Caracciolo and Caterina Laganà opened their small laboratory in 1965. What began as a small-scale operation supplying ice cream parlors and pastry shops – almond paste, almond drinks, nut spreads, and truffle nuts – is today a family heritage that embodies the flavor of an entire region.

Under the name Amandula, a product line was created that consistently avoids artificial flavorings. Instead, it uses carefully selected raw materials, undergoes strict food safety controls, and employs a craftsmanship that highlights the natural qualities of almonds. The result is spreads and pastes with genuine depth – nutty, aromatic, and with the unmistakable character of Calabrian ingredients.

Anyone who tries Caracciolo's products on bread, in pastries, or as an accompaniment to a dessert wine understands why this workshop has existed for almost six decades.
