FARFALLE pasta, in various colors

Playful FARFALLE pasta reminiscent of butterflies, colored naturally with beets, turmeric, and spinach. Perfect for creamy sauces, meat, and seafood.

“Bella Italia” colored FARFALLE pasta is playful pasta reminiscent of butterflies. It’s wonderful that the pasta has gained its color from beets (E162), turmeric (E100), hot peppers (E160c), spinach (E140), and cuttlefish ink (E153) – natural food colorings. Cuttlefish ink is derived from the ink sacs of cuttlefish, which they use for defense against enemies by releasing a large cloud of ink to confuse their predators. It is these natural food colorings that give the black pasta stripes their color. These pastas are also referred to as ribbons or butterflies due to their shape. In the spots where the pasta wrinkles, sauces and even larger ingredients cling wonderfully, making them particularly suitable for creamy textured sauces. We recommend serving them with meat, fish, or seafood, and they pair wonderfully with sauces such as garlic (E260) and olive oil, brown butter, pesto, tomatoes, and more.
