Our Saffron Malloreddus combines the best in traditional pasta-making techniques with high-quality ingredients. This specialty pasta is enhanced with organic saffron, which adds bold flavor and a splash of yellow-orange color to any dish.
Malloreddus, also known as Sardinian gnocchi, has been a staple in Sardinian cuisine for centuries. Its name is derived from the Sardinian word “malloru,” meaning “calf,” as its small, ridged shape was thought to resemble a young cow’s belly. Adding saffron to the dough is a regional practice that gives the pasta a distinctive golden color and a subtle, aromatic flavor. The pasta’s grooves and ridges make it excellent for holding thick sauces, particularly Sardinia’s signature sugo alla campidanese – a rich tomato sauce with sausage and saffron.

Saffron Malloreddus is one of my favorite pastas from Sfoglini. It is so versatile - I've used it for salads, soups and as the main dish. The infused saffron gives it a beautiful color and a lovely flavor note in lighter dishes. But this unique pasta holds up just fine with a heavier meat sauce as well. Please never stop making it, Sfoglini!
This is my favorite pasta. Love the shape as it retains a lot of sauce but the flavor of the pasta always shines through. Excellent texture!
I love all of the Sfoglini products I have purchased. My spaghetti sauce clings to the crevices and wavy shapes of the various pasta I have purchased. I love the different shapes. Would definitely recommend as this is my second purchase and I'm sure there will be more.
So fantastic!
DELICIOUS fantastic texture, very light pleasant flavor
