📦 Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I see multiple shipping costs in my cart?

If you purchase products from different categories (e.g. Pasta + Brioche + Drinks), the system may calculate combined shipping. This happens because the products are handled differently:

1. There Pasta requires standard packaging.

2. The Brioche they leave following ordering and preparation.

3. The Drinks with reinforced "Safe-Pack" packaging.

   You pay for the safety and freshness of every single package you receive.

Can I request an invoice?

Absolutely. Please include your complete billing information (VAT number and SDI/PEC email) in the order notes at checkout or contact us immediately after placing your order.

Is the package a gift?

No problem. Our shipments do not contain visible prices inside the package. The receipt will only be available digitally in your customer area or via email.
