Piccola Cucina Inc.
Food and Beverage Manufacturing
To create divine products for the gourmet consumer of discriminating tastes.
About us
Piccola Cucina is a 100% certified woman owned business based in Winnipeg, MB founded by mother and daughter. We have been in business for over 10 years and are the premiere manufacturers of almond based, healthy indulgent creations. Our line includes macaroons & pie shells made with the goodness of almonds as the first ingredient. We have dedicated our facility as gluten free as well as Kosher & HACCP certified. All of our products are made with almonds first, that are sourced from a 3rd generation family farm in the San Joaquin Valley in California, a BRC certified almond farm. True to Italian tradition, high end premium products require the absolute best ingredients, which is why we have sourced the best almond flour to make our delicious macaroons. When using so few ingredients, the quality of the inputs is just as important as the care and attention taken when crafting the finished product. Because we use only premium and few ingredients, our macaroons are inherently free from many of the top allergens except for tree nuts…making us a leader in the healthy indulgent space. We are a food manufacturing company that puts honesty and integrity first and foremost in everything we do. We believe that products can be made simply, with minimal processing and without the addition of extra fillers ensuring the customer receives a product that they can feel good about eating and feeding to their families. We approach our business holistically so that our impact on people & planet is sustainable. Piccola Cucina manages sustainability efforts by minimizing byproducts, achieving zero food waste, recycling processing and packaging materials, and conserving energy and water. We are committed to Diversity and Inclusion throughout our supply chain. Whenever possible we source from vendors and suppliers that are committed to diversity in the workplace with a commitment to inclusiveness.

What an incredible evening at the World Trade Centre Winnipeg Talks event! We were honoured to be part of a gathering filled with inspiration, learning, and connection. 🌟 Our CEO, Pina Romolo, shared her entrepreneurial journey alongside the amazing Diogo Iwasaki, Co-founder and CTO of Ori.Gatou Creative Solutions Inc. The insights and experiences shared truly resonated with everyone. 🙌 A key takeaway from Pina’s talk: “You must keep moving forward in everything you do, and surround yourself with the right people. It’s also important to have people who believe in what you do and give you feedback along the way.” A huge thank you to WTCWinnipeg for the opportunity to connect and to Diogo for the engaging talk. We left feeling inspired and excited for what’s next! 🚀💼 #WTCTalks #wtcwinnipeg #entrepreneurship #businessgrowth #piccolacucina #inspiration #canadianmade #manitobabusiness

📸✨ Exciting times at the Taste of Western Canada! 🌾 We had an amazing opportunity to showcase our gluten-free creations in Calgary! At this event, we introduced the new products of Piccola Cucina, following the acquisition of Judy G Foods: gluten-free pizza and vegan desserts! Connecting with domestic and international buyers and distributors and participating in the B2B matchmaking program was a pleasure! We were honoured to receive an invitation to the Calgary Stampede’s Agriculture and Agrifood International Reception, where we delved into agri-food opportunities in the Indo-Pacific region. A huge shout out to my wonderful family for being there to support me, as always! 💖 #tasteofwesterncanada #glutenfree #glutenfreefood
