Sagra della pesca ripiena

Nestled among the gentle morainic hills surrounding Turin, Rocca Canavese transforms into a temple of Piedmontese pastry-making with the Sagra della Pesca Ripiena. This celebration honours one of the region's most iconic desserts: ripe peaches filled with cocoa, amaretti, chocolate and hazelnuts, slowly baked to perfection. More than just a food festival, it's a journey through time, through the memory of authentic flavours and recipes passed down through generations. Beyond the festival's undisputed star, visitors can discover authentic Piedmontese cuisine, taste local wines that beautifully complement the region's produce, and join fascinating tours through the local orchards. Pastry-making workshops allow curious visitors to learn the secrets of traditional preparation, transforming your visit into an educational and immersive experience. Evenings come alive with concerts, artisan markets and romantic strolls through the town centre, creating a magical atmosphere where sweetness extends beyond the desserts to the convivial spirit of the celebration itself. An unmissable opportunity to celebrate fruit as a precious ingredient and home cooking as a cultural heritage to be preserved and savoured.
