Pepita is the result of a collaboration between Alba, Creative City for Gastronomy, and Limoges, Creative City for Craftsmanship. The idea behind it is to bring together the cultures and knowledge of two great European realities, because in mutual exchange one can always be enriched. Thanks to this meeting, the already high quality of the products of Alba and Limoges has taken a further leap forward.
Pepita becomes a precious element of the "Kit for the Alba White Truffle"; it has been created by the prestigious Maison Raynaud, an important producer of artistic ceramics from Limoges.The design object was created by Mariela Schwarz Montiel based on the inspiration of precious stones and the logo of the International White Truffle Fair.
