Sometimes, the best treats are the ones that take you straight back to childhood. A packet of Italian crisps isn’t just a snack, it’s a little time machine. Whether you remember sharing Cipster during family picnics, swapping Fonzies in the schoolyard, or sneaking a few San Carlo crisps before dinner, these iconic bites are part of growing up Italian.

Three names have been loved by generations of kids (and grown-ups too): Cipster, Fonzies, and San Carlo Più Gusto. Each one brings its own fun, flavour, and a little taste of home, wherever you are.

Cipster – The Original Airy Crisp

Light, golden, and impossibly moreish, Cipster has been delighting Italians since 1949. These puffed potato ovals are baked to crisp perfection, offering a melt-in-the-mouth experience that pairs beautifully with drinks and good company.

Why we love them
✔️ Airy crunch with a feather-light texture
✔️ Perfect for Milanese-style cocktail hours
✔️ Nostalgic flavour, never greasy

Fonzies – Bold, Cheesy, Irresistible

Baked, never fried, Fonzies are Italy’s answer to cheesy corn puffs, with a toasted crunch and creamy cheese coating that has become a beloved staple in Italian homes and schoolbags.

Why we love them
✔️ Crunchier and toastier than your average cheese puff
✔️ Just full-on flavour
✔️ A cult classic for good reason

San Carlo Più Gusto – Potatoes with Personality

San Carlo Più Gusto crisps are more than just a snack, they’re flavour-packed slices of Italy. From lime and pink pepper to Mediterranean herbs and paprika, this range captures the bold essence of Italian seasoning on a perfectly crisped potato.

Why we love them
✔️ Gourmet flavours that feel elevated, not overpowering
✔️ Elegant enough for an apéritivo board
✔️ Thin and crispy with a satisfying crunch
