The Pasticceria Dalmasso, now with its two shops, has once again been awarded ‘Tre torte’ (three cakes) in the 2018 guide, taking sole possession of second place in Italy.
‘When I heard the news I thought: I'm on the right path,’ said Pastry Master Dalmasso, ‘a path where every day is marked by exceptionality, improvement and challenging ourselves. There’s a little bit of madness each day, which I share with my colleagues and my wife Monica, the perfect right-hand for any situation and new business, like Dalmasso Rivoli. The biggest challenge has been creating increasingly good top-notch products whilst at the same time managing the differences between the two shops, ensuring they are both two parts of a single identity, and we are really happy with this result.’

In keeping with his ethos, Pastry Master Dalmasso also held a workshop for students: a live lesson on the Piemontese art of pastry making, during which he prepared the delights which were then offered to the public for tasting.
