Pasticceria Cagna Arrigo (est. 1934)
THE PLACE
Our Pastry Shop is composed of a large and bright counter, thanks to which you can see and choose all our desserts, and a nice little room, where you can sip a good coffee.
One of our strong points is knowing how to maintain the traditions of the past, as you can see from the furniture of our place, adapting to all modern needs.
THE LABORATORY
Our laboratory is a clean, modern environment with cutting-edge machinery, but it still preserves an almost century-old tradition.
The old oven, in fact, was installed by Grandpa to toast hazelnuts, and even today we boast the use of this precious machinery, thanks to which we bake delicacies such as Garessini and all our biscuits.

A SAD MEMORY
Unfortunately, we have had to deal with three floods: 1994, 2016 and 2020. The last one was the worst for our place: water and mud broke in everywhere, destroying furniture, machinery and two cold rooms. We had to repaint the walls and change the burner of our ancient oven, the basis of our tradition. No one, in such a short time, expected an event of this magnitude.
AWARDS AND RECOGNITIONS
We have always been very proud of maintaining the high artisan tradition. Precisely for this reason, our work was awarded with the prestigious “Certificate of Artisan Excellence – because recognized quality is recognizable”, in 2006.
Our Paste di Meliga are protected by a Slow Food Presidium. Through this project, Slow Food has intended to safeguard over 200 traditional Italian products at risk of extinction.
Our place was selected among the best historic cafes in the province of Cuneo, during 2019, thanks to a project in collaboration with Confcommercio.
We also serve numerous food shops and cafes for the resale and tasting of our products. They are mainly located in Turin and its province.
In the summer of 2019, we celebrated 85 years of business, and our next milestone will be to reach 100 years together with all our beloved customers!
