Sperlari is one of Italy's most iconic confectionery brands, widely recognized for its high-quality candies, nougats (Torrone), and mustard fruits (Mostarda). The brand has its roots in Cremona, Italy, where it was established by Enea Sperlari in 1836. Over the centuries, it has become a staple of Italian festive traditions, particularly during the Christmas season.

Manufacturing primarily remains centered in Italy, with major production facilities located in Cremona and Gordona. After being owned by several international corporations including H.J. Heinz and Cloetta, the brand returned to broader European ownership. As of today, Sperlari is part of the Katjes International group, a German-based company that focuses on iconic European confectionery brands. The brand continues to emphasize traditional Italian craftsmanship while modernizing its production to meet global standards for sustainability and ingredient quality.
