WELCOME

to a Family Tradition

The Mazzucco family crest dates back to the 14th century.

Golden Bonbon is the living heritage of three generations of the Mazzucco family who take great pride in their artisanal craftsmanship of a quality confectionery. Originally from the northern Italian region of Piemonte, the family's unique recipe established their reputation as respected artisans of torrone, also known as nougat.

Grandfather Giuseppe, a master pastry chef in the town of Asti, developed a secret recipe which involved a laborious nine-hour process. The unique result established Giuseppe's reputation as one of the finest torrone craftsmen in the region.

Giuseppe's son Riccardo continued the family tradition. He established set up a successful nougat business in Perth, Western Australia. In 1992, Riccardo, with his sons Marco and Enrico brought the family's expertise to Vancouver, Canada.

Golden Bonbon’s emphasis on traditional production methods are aimed at quality products, forgoing industrial-scale quantities. Golden Bonbon’s varied and elegant confections can be found in a variety of specialty and retail stores. Its products are distributed across Canada, USA, Asia and Europe.
