Gocciole Chocolate biscuits

Gocciole is a highly popular brand of shortbread biscuits with chocolate drops, instantly recognizable by their signature drop shape. The brand was originally created by Pavesi, a historic Italian confectionery company founded by Mario Pavesi in 1937. Today, Gocciole remains a staple of Italian breakfast culture.

The products are primarily manufactured in Italy, notably at the production facilities in Castiglione delle Stiviere or Novara. Over the years, ownership has transitioned through corporate acquisitions, with Pavesi becoming an integral part of the Barilla Group. As of 2024 and beyond, the brand is fully owned and managed by Barilla G. e R. Fratelli, maintaining its status as a leading Italian food brand with global recognition.
