The authentic flavours of tradition
Artisanal nougat factory in Tonara: Sardinian nougat
The Marotto nougat factory in Tonara is a historic family-run company specialized in the production of Sardinian artisanal nougat and typical regional sweets. Founded in the late 19th century and renovated in the 1960s, the workshop stands out for its respect for confectionery traditions and its use of artisanal techniques, avoiding industrial processes that would compromise flavor and authenticity.
From the very beginning, Torronificio Marotto's goal has been to offer a genuine product, faithful to the traditions of Tonara, a small town in the heart of Sardinia known for centuries for its confectionery culture. Our production is based on
careful selection of raw materials, including honey, almonds and quality dried fruit, and on the manual processing that gives the nougat a unique consistency, soft and fragrant at the same time
A nougat that tells history and tradition
In our artisanal factory, we prepare nougat according to original recipes passed down from generation to generation. Here, the production time is part of the flavor: the cooking, mixing, and resting phases are performed using traditional methods to preserve the product's organoleptic qualities.
The available variants reflect the richness of the Sardinian territory: from the classic nougat to almonds to the version at walnuts and to the hazelnuts, up to more characteristic flavours such as those flavoured with myrtle, lemon or orangeEach variant expresses extraordinary aromas and flavors, perfect for enjoying as a dessert after a meal, for bringing to the table during the holidays, or for giving as a gift in dedicated gift boxes.
