BABBI: tradition and innovation in Italian confectionery excellence

For over seventy years, Babbi has been synonymous with excellence in the world of confectionery. Rooted in artisanal tradition yet with a forward-looking vision, the company has distinguished itself in the production of gourmet Confectionery Specialties, Ingredients for artisanal gelato and pastry, and Wafers and Cones.

Driven by passion, quality, and sustainability, Babbi has expanded its presence to over 70 countries worldwide. Founded in 1952 by Attilio Babbi, the company initially specialized in producing wafers and cones for gelato.

Fueled by Nonno Attilio’s passion, relentless innovation, and the need to extend a traditionally seasonal business, Babbi launched its first line of Confectionery Specialties in 1958. This gave rise to the iconic Waferini and Viennesi, refined delights that quickly won over consumers.

Over the years, the range expanded to include new wafer-based creations such as Babbini, Dolcetorta, Gran Waferini, Waferone, and Cialdelizia, as well as chocolate specialties like Bonette, Cubon, the indulgent Cioccodelizia, and the Cremadelizia spreadable creams, a perfect blend of carefully selected ingredients and rich, intense flavor. “Only by striving for quality can we achieve perfection,” Attilio Babbi once said—a principle that continues to guide every company decision.

Today, the fourth generation of the Babbi family carries forward this legacy with the same dedication, continuously investing in research and innovation while respecting its roots and tradition.

Every Babbi creation results from meticulous ingredient selection and a rigorous production process, ensuring gluten-free, Kosher, and Halal certifications for many products—reinforcing the company’s commitment to delivering excellence to an increasingly discerning audience.

This same philosophy inspired the creation of Babbi Home Bakery, a gluten-free line dedicated to home baking enthusiasts who seek high-quality ingredients with ease and reliability. These AIC-certified dessert mixes, made with premium ingredients, guarantee delicious and flawless results while upholding Babbi’s high standards.

Designed for simplicity and convenience, they allow anyone to create indulgent treats at home, bringing Babbi’s signature elegance and authentic flavors to every kitchen.

Quality and sustainability go hand in hand: Babbi is committed to reducing its environmental impact by investing in solar energy at its Bertinoro facilities, minimizing plastic in packaging, and repurposing production waste to generate biomethane.

As part of its strategic expansion, Babbi has established two branches: one in Barcelona, active since 2006, and another in Augsburg, opened in 2019. The brand also enjoys a strong presence in key markets such as Japan and the United Arab Emirates, where it has exclusive retail points and strategic partnerships.

Choosing Babbi means embracing a legacy of quality, passion, and innovation. With the perfect balance of tradition and modernity, Babbi continues to deliver unique taste experiences, winning over those who seek excellence in every Daily Little Pleasure.
