Jelsi, a journey into the uncontaminated heart of Molise

It is in Jelsi, in the uncontaminated heart of Molise, that the story of the Biscottificio Cianciullo begins. A small village rich in history and authenticity with which its unusual beauty, thousand-year-old traditions, breathtaking landscape and pure air inspires our work and our productions every day. Its gentle hills that follow each other towards the horizon and which in summer transform into lush wheat fields that are the evocative setting of our production plant.

Indeed, wheat, the yellow gold of this land and the mother ingredient of our biscuits and artisan desserts, is the undisputed protagonist of our territory. Cultivated for generations, it has been celebrated for over 200 years. The wheat festival in honor of Sant'Anna, on July 26th, a festival rooted in the heart of every inhabitant of Jelsy and acclaimed throughout the region. Unbelievable and majestic allegorical floats made of wheat parade through the main streets of the village. True masterpieces, created by the expert hands of each citizen, whose symbolism refers to singular themes, between past and present, antiquity and modernity, tradition and innovation. An extraordinary celebration, in a place where it is easy to be struck "like on the road to Damascus".

The authenticity of our small village and the tenacity of our region, a territory rich in traditions handed down over the years and jealously guarded by its inhabitants, are the values ​​underlying our production philosophy. The tombolo of Isernia, the garish women with their ancient customs, the sheep tracks and transhumance are just some of the mores and customs from which we draw inspiration. Our products are a tribute to this incredible land, where history and nature intertwine in a unique union.
