Simply Unique
Since 1894
It all started in 1894, when Nicola Mucci had his very first factory right in the center of Andria where at present, the Museo del Confetto “Giovanni Mucci” is located. Back then, he began to produce chocolates, sweets and ‘confetti’ using the excellent almonds from Andria which is considered “the fruit of the ancient agricultural knowledge”.
Around 1920, he created the “Mandorla Imperial” a new ‘confetto’ which eventually led to the making of the famous “Tenerelli”, a secret Mucci Family recipe.
Mucci Giovanni products bring together a delicious blend of an age-old skill combined with experience and enhanced by a specialized craftwork that up to this very moment, is still being carried out using the same techniques according to the guidelines of traditional premium confectionery.
For more than 120 years the factory has received numerous recognitions which attest to the high- quality standards of production.
