Jovial Foods
Founded by a husband and wife team, Jovial Foods was created out of a passion for food, farming and traditions. When Carla and Rodolfo had a daughter with gluten sensitivity, they looked to a nearly extinct ancient grain called einkorn, or as they call it, “nature’s original wheat.” This was the start of Jovial Foods’ mission to address the many issues faced by those with food sensitivities. From there, einkorn flour, einkorn-based pastas and other gluten-free and grain-free pastas were born.

Jovial Pasta
Jovial’s pastas may be untraditional in their ingredients, but the pasta-making process is anything but. The brown rice and einkorn harvested on small, family-owned farms are then brought to a family-run pasta manufacturer outside of Lucca, Italy, where the family has crafted pasta for over a century. Pasta artisans mix Jovial’s flours with locally sourced spring water and use bronze dies to press each shape, giving the pasta a coarser surface to better hold sauce. The pasta is then dried slowly at low temperatures to preserve nutrients and flavor.
Whole wheat einkorn pastas: spaghetti, fusilli, penne rigate
Brown rice pastas: elbow, penne, fusilli, farfalle, tagliatelle, fettuccine, shells, caserecce, lasagna, manicotti, linguine
Grain-free cassava pastas: penne, spaghetti, elbows, orzo, fusilli
Jovial Tomatoes & Olive Oil
What’s a good pasta without a good sauce? Jovial’s crushed, diced and whole peeled tomatoes are all organic and jarred in glass, keeping the tomatoes’ flavors pure. There’s no added salt, citric acid, calcium chloride, basil or additives. Jovial’s tomatoes are fresh, sweet and delicious on their own.
Top that with Jovial’s olive oil, pressed and bottled by a local family in the Veneto region of Northern Italy. Olives are selected by hand and pressed just minutes from the trees where they were picked. The olive oil production process has been passed down through the generations, keeping product quality high and time-honored traditions alive.
