The Ileana range

Two familiar favourites.
One way to make them: properly.

We are starting with pelmeni and colțunași—Moldovan filled dumplings whose quality depends on the dough, the filling and the care behind the recipe.

Pelmeni and colțunași served in traditional bowls
01

Pelmeni

Tender, elastic dough, a generous filling and balanced flavour—everything good pelmeni should be.

02

Moldovan dumplings

Our colțunași are carefully shaped Moldovan dumplings with pleasing texture and fillings developed for real flavour.

Our promise

A long ingredient list cannot rescue a weak recipe.

We use only what earns its place in the product. We refine the dough and filling, taste the result and watch every stage from incoming ingredients to freezing.
