Sweetmood No30 - May 2022

EDITORIAL Made in Italy is growing strongly! All the indicators show a renewed revival of Made in Italy products throughout the world, except for the territories affected by the surreal war that was unleashed madly in the 21st century, just when the notorious pandemic was beginning to decline in intensity. In recent months, we have listened to many national and international professionals, and we have felt the pulse of the market. Everywhere we went, we found that we have started up again with a great desire to work! Trade fairs have returned to their in-person formats. Sigep, even though later than originally scheduled, went well, as did the Spanish fairs Intersicop and Alimentaria; we had excellent feedback during ExpoSweet in Warsaw, and Gulfood in Dubai was a great success. In these contexts, “Italy” as a product is very strong, both in the foodservice industry, as well as in the artisanal sweets industry especially. In this issue of SweetMood, you will find different ideas and recipes to discover new and unexpected ingredients. We address the theme of sustainability and we have dedicated the cover and the feature to Annalisa Borella, creative pastry chef with great talent and ability. Happy reading, and we will see you again this upcoming autumn, hoping that in the meantime the world will come to its senses. Franco Cesare Puglisi 7
