From Polo’s 'mint with the hole' to the iconic Rossana wrapped in transparent paper, Olimpia Zagnoli curates a personal archive of Italian sweets - a nostalgic journey through flavours, colours, and design. Each page is like unwrapping a candy, evoking rustling wrappers, melting textures, and playful memories. With vivid illustrations and witty anecdotes, Zagnoli invites us into a world as kaleidoscopic as her art. Based on her 2024 Il Sole 24 Ore column 'Caramelle non ne voglio più' (I don’t want any more sweets), this book expands the collection with even more confections and previously unpublished illustrations.
