Motta Marrons Glacés Entiers

Motta Marrons Glacés are high-quality candied chestnuts, a classic European delicacy particularly popular in Italy and France. The product shown features whole candied chestnuts (marrons glacés entiers), which are known for their sweet, dense texture and elegant presentation common during festive seasons.

Founded in Milan in 1919 by Angelo Motta, the brand originally revolutionized the Italian confectionery scene with its iconic Panettone. Over the decades, the Motta brand became a symbol of Italian pastry mastery. While the brand has transitioned through various corporate ownerships, its identity remains deeply rooted in its Milanese heritage.

Ownership of the Motta brand is currently split based on product categories. The bakery and confectionery division (which includes these candied chestnuts and Panettone) is owned by Bauli S.p.A., a major Italian food company. The ice cream division, however, is owned by Froneri (a joint venture between Nestlé and R&R Ice Cream). For this specific confectionery product, the brand is under the direct stewardship of the Bauli group in Verona, Italy.
