Ciao Pappy marinara sauces celebrate Italian heritage and heirloom recipes blending premium quality with essential convenience. Inspired by the Italian Riviera and 100% California grown, our sauces are all-natural, contain no added sugar, are non-GMO verified, and use whole ingredients. The company was launched in 2022 by founder Francesca Pittaluga. Following a 14-year career in fashion, Francesca created Ciao Pappy in honor of her Italian father, his home cooking talents, and her passion for quality food. Ciao Pappy has superior taste and modern packaging to speak to the modern food consumer. To date, Ciao Pappy is carried online and in 150+ retail stores across the United States including premium retailers such as Goop, Farmshop, Foxtrot, Gjusta Grocer, and more. In its first year, Ciao Pappy has been recognized in publications such as Goop, Eater, W Magazine, Town & Country, Angeleno Magazine, Shondaland, and Golden State. Each year, the company gives back a percentage of proceeds towards (OATS) Older Adults Technology Services, who’s work helps support the aging community and keeping them connected. Our vision is to create connection, bringing families and communities together through sharing food. We hope our sauces bring more joy and happiness to the dinner table.
