April's Italian Arrivals: Fresh Flavours for Your Spring Menu

With the days finally getting longer, now's the perfect time to breathe some fresh life into your menus. This April, Divine Importers is landing a beautiful selection of authentic Italian produce right here in the UK — from exciting new drinks to the best of what the season has to offer. Here's everything available until the 30th of April.

A Sardinian Icon Arrives in the UK

We're thrilled to share that Ichnusa Non Filtrata has officially made its way to the UK — and it's unlike anything else on the market. This unfiltered 5.0% ABV lager is bottled with natural yeasts, giving it that signature cloudy, golden look and a full-bodied flavour with hints of yellow fruit and herbs. A genuine conversation starter and a brilliant way to offer your customers something they won't find at every bar down the road.

The Best of Asparagus Season

Spring and asparagus go hand in hand, and there's no easier way to put something seasonal and special on the menu. We've pulled together a lovely selection that does the hard work for you.

• The Giganti Ricotta e Asparagi are generous, beautifully crafted parcels packed with premium asparagus, ricotta, and Grana Padano DOP — elegant enough for a fine dining menu, easy enough for a busy kitchen.
• The Panciotti con Punte di Asparagi e Mascarpone are another stunning option, with a richness that speaks for itself.
• Round things out with our velvety Crema di Asparagi or the ever-reliable Frozen Green Asparagus — consistent quality, ready when you need it.

Artisan Dairy & Vegetarian Innovations

Our cheese range is growing, and we're excited to introduce Murgella Stracciatella — the creamy heart of burrata available in four irresistible varieties: Classic, Genovese Basil DOP, Truffle, and Smoked. The kind of ingredient that elevates a dish the moment it hits the plate.

For your vegetarian guests, meet the new Il Vegetariano Pecorino from Sardinia. Made with 100% ewe's milk and vegetarian rennet, this firm, savoury cheese is a rare find in the UK market — a genuinely novel addition that caters to growing demand for high-quality vegetarian options without compromising on authenticity.

Perfecting the Pinsa

Want to offer something a little different from the classic round? Our Aho Pinsa Romana Bases (23x37cm oval) bring an authentic Roman street food tradition to your kitchen — distinctive, delicious, and ready to top. 

For those who prefer to craft their dough from scratch, Molino Vigevano Vesuvio "0" Flour delivers the kind of light, honeycombed crust that's genuinely hard to achieve without the right ingredients.

Dolce Vita: Desserts and Coffee

No Italian meal feels complete without something sweet to finish on. Our premium Menodiciotto Gelato and Sorbets are handcrafted in Piemonte since 1986 — every scoop carries real heritage and quality, from the classic Fior Di Panna and indulgent Tiramisu gelato to the refreshing Blood Orange sorbet and a Dairy-free Vegan Chocolate that doesn't ask anyone to compromise.

Or for something quick and crowd-pleasing straight from the freezer, the Cannolo Mignon delivers a crisp, creamy, authentically Sicilian moment with zero fuss.

And then there's the coffee — because no self-respecting Italian meal ends without one. La Tazzadoro is hand-roasted in small batches in Sardinia by artisans who have spent decades perfecting their craft. This is not a coffee you put on the menu as an afterthought — it's a talking point, a closer, the kind of cup that keeps people coming back. Available in two distinctive blends, Miscela Bar and Excelsior, it's the finishing touch that elevates the entire dining experience. If you're serious about the full Italian dining experience, this is the coffee to serve.
