The sixth-generation Italian pasta maker expands its U.S. portfolio with Potato Gnocchi, Stelline and Fusilli Corti Bucati

MILAN, Oct. 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- In celebration of National Pasta Month, Pasta Rummo, the sixth-generation, family-owned Italian pasta maker, announces the U.S. launch of three new products: Pasta Rummo Potato Gnocchi, Fusilli Corti Bucati and Stelline. Building on nearly two centuries of pasta making, the launches reflect the brand's continued U.S. expansion, as consumers are increasingly seeking convenient, high quality pantry staples that make it easier to enjoy authentic Italian meals at home.

Made with Italian semolina and fresh Italian potatoes and no preservatives, Pasta Rummo Potato Gnocchi delivers the light, pillowy texture and authentic taste of traditional Italian gnocchi in just two minutes. Soft, never sticky, Rummo Potato Gnocchi has the perfect consistency that holds its shape, with a rich, fresh potato flavor that rivals homemade gnocchi. Crafted with delicate, pronounced ridges, they're designed to perfectly capture sauces from classic tomato and pesto to browned butter and sage.

Joining Potato Gnocchi are Fusilli Corti Bucati, a spiral-shaped hollow pasta designed to capture sauces in every bite and Stelline, one of Italy's most beloved tiny pasta shapes, perfect for soups, broths and comforting family meals. Like all Pasta Rummo products, both are crafted with the brand's unwavering commitment to quality and authentic Italian tradition.

"At Pasta Rummo, innovation has always gone hand in hand with tradition," said Antonio Rummo, President of Rummo USA. "As we celebrate our 180th anniversary, we're proud to continue expanding our offerings with products that make authentic Italian cuisine more accessible to U.S. consumers. All our products embody everything our family has stood for over six generations - exceptional ingredients, uncompromising quality and the belief that simple, well-crafted foods create memorable meals."

Founded in 1846 in Benevento, Italy, Pasta Rummo has built its legacy on a commitment to quality, craftsmanship and the art of Italian pasta-making. The brand is renowned for its signature Lenta Lavorazione® method, a slow and precise process that ensures an ideal "al dente" bite and a textured surface perfect for holding sauce. Rummo is also the first pasta brand in the world to have its "al dente" performance certified by independent third-party Bureau Veritas (N. 385-003). The result is pasta with a clean, subtly sweet wheat flavor and a smooth, resilient bite that elevates every dish.

The product launches come as Pasta Rummo continues to experience significant momentum in the U.S. market. For more than 7 years, Rummo has been the fastest growing brand in the U.S.* with both their Classic and Gluten Free pasta, driven by expanding distribution at national retailers and increasing consumer recognition of its premium quality and authentic Italian heritage.

Pasta Rummo Potato Gnocchi is available for an MSRP of $4.49, while Fusilli Corti Bucati and Stelline are available for an MSRP of $3.99. The new products are available at Whole Foods Market and other retailers nationwide. For more information please visit https://www.pastarummo.it/ or follow along on social media @pasta_rummo.
