La Colazione, Italian Morning Ritual

Start your summer mornings the Italian way with la colazione, a sweet and simple ritual of coffee, cookies, and connection. Inspired by this beloved tradition, our Summer Tavola box brings together regional specialties that capture the essence of slow mornings in Italy. From rich espresso to delicate lemon cream, each item is meant to be savored. This collection also includes recipes from Bebe Carminito for a few delightful treats to make and share. While this box was inspired by the morning ritual, these sweet bites also shine as an after-dinner treat alongside a final espresso or digestivo.

Each box includes:

  • Trucillo Espresso 
  • Fiore al Limoncello Breakfast Cookie
  • Lemon Cream
  • Sicilian Strawberry Jam by Scyavuru
  • Lemon Extra Virgin Olive Oil 
  • Praline Almonds by Loliva
  • Anise Pizzelle by Pizzelle di Nonna 
  • Marabissi Tuscan Cookies


Want to add wine? Check out our La Colazione Tavola + Vino box that includes a bottle of Sommossa Bonarda Frizzante Oltrepo Pavese DOC, a delightfully sparkling red from Lombardy.

* Dalla Fonte sources all products from small, Italian producers. Sometimes, we run into inventory issues and need to swap an item for an equally delicious replacement.

This Season’s Vino

Sommossa Bonarda Frizzante Oltrepo Pavese DOC

This bold and expressive frizzante is anything but ordinary. Bursting with dark cherry, ripe plum, and a whisper of grilled sage and crushed violets, it strikes a perfect balance between savory and sweet.

Fine bubbles lift layers of tart red and black berries, while bright acidity and a touch of citrus keep it fresh and vibrant.

The finish is juicy and grippy, with lingering notes of balsamic spice and sun-ripened fruit – an unforgettable sip that pairs beautifully with charcuterie, rich cheeses, or even your favorite pizza night.

Trucillo Espresso
Bold, balanced, and unmistakably Italian, this is the espresso that anchors every morning ritual. Trucillo’s signature blend brings together fragrant Arabica and rich, chocolaty Robusta for a smooth, full-bodied cup with just the right hint of sweetness and depth. Crafted in Salerno since 1950, Trucillo is steeped in tradition and precision, delivering the kind of espresso that’s meant to be savored slowly, whether sipped solo or shared with friends. It’s the perfect foundation for your colazione or any moment that calls for a taste of Italy.
Fiore al Limoncello Breakfast Cookie
Mornings in Italy are sweet, simple, and best enjoyed with a cookie in hand. These delicate breakfast treats are kissed with the bright flavor of Limoncello, bringing a hint of sunshine to your first sip of coffee. Light, fragrant, and just sweet enough, they capture the joy of a leisurely Italian morning
Aledi Bronte Lemon Cream
Bring the sun-drenched flavors of Sicily to your table with this velvety lemon cream, made from handpicked Sicilian lemons and artisanally crafted for exceptional brightness and balance. Its silky texture and vibrant citrus notes make it a versatile indulgence—spread it on warm toast, dollop over crepes or swirl into yogurt for a luxurious twist. This season, we love it as a topping for EVOO cupcakes, crisp pizzelle, or alongside your morning breakfast cookies for a zesty Italian start.
Scyavuru Sicilian Strawberry Jam
Made with 65% juicy Sicilian strawberries, this all-natural jam bursts with sun-ripened sweetness and vibrant aroma; true to its name Scyavuru, meaning “scent” in Sicilian dialect. Crafted from a family recipe and elegantly packaged, it’s a beautiful blend of tradition and flavor. The foundation of Bebe Carminito’s Sicilian Strawberry Jam & Walnut Bars, this jam also pairs perfectly spread atop the lemon breakfast cookies included in this box or served simply with buttered toast and a touch of soft cheese. A spoonful is all it takes to start your morning with something truly special.
Lemon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Bright, fragrant, and beautifully balanced, Tenuta Sant’Ilario’s lemon-infused extra virgin olive oil adds a burst of citrus to your favorite dishes. Cold-pressed on a family farm in Abruzzo, it’s perfect for drizzling over roasted vegetables, seafood, or summer salads or for adding a zesty twist to cakes and Bebe’s olive oil cupcakes. Packaged in a decorative tin to preserve its flavor and freshness, this gourmet oil is as beautiful on your counter as it is on your plate.
Praline Almonds
These golden, caramelized almonds are a sweet, satisfying finish to any meal or the perfect crunchy companion to your favorite wine. Lightly toasted and slowly cooked in caramelized sugar, they strike a balance between nutty and indulgent. This season, they shine in Bebe Carminito’s Praline Biscotti recipe and make a beautiful addition to her Italian cookie board. Whether enjoyed on their own or paired with espresso, these praline almonds bring irresistible flavor and festive flair.
Anise Pizzelle
Light, crisp, and delicately sweet, these traditional Italian waffle cookies are infused with the unmistakable flavor of anise. Made using time-honored techniques, pizzelle are pressed between iron plates to create their iconic floral pattern and whisper-thin texture. Originating from the Abruzzo region as early as the 8th century, pizzelle have long been a symbol of celebration. Enjoy them as part of your morning coffee ritual, serve alongside gelato, or layer with this season’s lemon cream for a simple dessert. A true taste of heritage in every bite.
Marabissi Tuscan Cookies with Lemon & Ginger
Crisp, fragrant, and deeply flavorful, these artisanal cookies blend golden brown sugar with the bright zest of lemon and the warm spice of ginger. A touch of sea salt balances the sweetness, creating a cookie that’s both comforting and refined. Crafted in Siena using recipes passed down through three generations, these cookies capture the essence of Tuscan tradition. Perfect with espresso, tea, or hot chocolate, they also shine as part of a curated biscotti board or as a sweet afternoon indulgence.
