THE CHOCO­LATI­ER THAT CRE­AT­ED THE ITAL­IAN CHOCO­LATE KISS

A tra­di­tion­al­ly Ital­ian choco­lati­er found­ed in the 1900s in the city of Peruglia, Italy, Perug­i­na was borne from a love of tra­di­tion and fine Ital­ian choco­late. Found­ed by Luisa Spag­no­li and her hus­band, it was Luisa’s inno­va­tion and cre­ativ­i­ty that even­tu­al­ly cre­at­ed Baci Perug­i­na or the Ital­ian Choco­late Kiss. 

With Baci mean­ing kiss in Eng­lish, it has become a sym­bol of love and affec­tion since its cre­ation in the 1930s. A lover’s kiss of whole roast­ed hazel­nuts coat­ed in fine choco­late. A time­less gift of love that is now being enjoyed by part­ners and lovers in over 50 countries.
