Lavolio

Lavolio is artisan-made Italian confectionery with a unique and memorable personality. 

British-Italian entrepreneur Lavinia Davolio abandoned a high-flying career in banking to follow her passion for food. She could have opened a restaurant or trained as a chef, but instead she decided to invent a whole new category of luxury confectionery…Real pieces of fruit, nuts or apple gelatine, sometimes coated in chocolate or mixed with spices, often encased within a thin sugar shell. They are much more than a box of chocolates. “Imagine Smarties given a Sophia Loren makeover.” - Food and Travel Magazine
