CUCINA ANTICA

Cucina Antica is a brand that stands out in the culinary world for its commitment to preserving the authenticity and tradition of Italian cuisine. Founded by Chef Neil Fusco, Cucina Antica has its roots deeply embedded in the rich soil of Southern Italy, where the Fusco family's farming heritage shaped their approach to food and quality ingredients.

With a history that dates back to the early 1800s, the Fusco family farm was established at the base of Mount Vesuvius, a region known as ""Campania Felix"" or ""happy valley,"" celebrated for its abundant and sweet tomato crops. This legacy of farming and respect for the land followed the family to New York in 1972, where Chef Neil began his journey in the food industry, culminating in the creation of Cucina Antica Foods, Corp. in 1998.

Cucina Antica's award-winning Italian pasta sauces and ketchup are crafted using only the most premium and pure ingredients, including imported Italian San Marzano tomatoes. The brand's artisanal cooking method involves a shorter cooking time at peak temperatures and a slower mixing speed, which preserves the integrity and flavors of the tomatoes. This allows consumers to cook the sauces without losing any flavor, bringing the true, homemade taste of Italy to their homes.

The brand's commitment to quality extends to its certifications, with products being Non-GMO Project Verified, ensuring compliance with rigorous non-GMO standards. For over 20 years, Cucina Antica has been providing families with not only pasta sauces but also organic salad dressings, ketchup, extra virgin olive oil, and artisan pastas.

Cucina Antica's dedication to authenticity, quality, and tradition makes it more than just a brand; it's a gateway to experiencing the heart and soul of Italian cooking.
