Vintage Italia, the parent company of Pasta Chips, purveyors of the first baked pasta chip brand, and Pasta Bow Ties, the new stylish bowtie-shaped puffed pasta snack brand, announced expansions into over a dozen major retail chains nationwide. Between Pasta Chips and the new Pasta Bow Ties, the better-for-you Italian-inspired snack brands boast 18 retail chain rollouts in the past two months including but not limited to Hy-Vee, Woodman’s, Lucky, Akins, Sam’s Club South Central Region, Costco Mid-West, HEB Texas, 7-Eleven, and select Safeway and Safeway/Albertsons regions.
Developed under Vintage Italia, Pasta Chips and the brand’s new Pasta Bow Ties, offer unique, quality, premium ingredient snacks crafted from durum wheat semolina flour and baked as a better-for-you snacking alternative. The brands integrate farro, a higher protein grain for a more nutrient-dense product, and highlight fine seasonings based on regional Italian favorites for robust taste and crispy texture throughout. Inspired by the Tuscan Hills of Italy, Pasta Chips launched as the brand’s first product innovation establishing an entirely new food vertical - snackable pasta. Following the success of Pasta Chips, Pasta Bow Ties took the category a step further, offering the first puffed pasta snack on the market. Crafted from the same quality semolina flour used to create traditional Italian pasta dishes, Pasta Chips and Pasta Bow Ties captivate the gently baked texture and rich flavors of the Italian countryside.
