About Molto Forni
Molto Forni is Edita's frozen food range, covering frozen croissant and puff pastry dough and frozen pizza. It is the only one of the company's seven segments sold frozen rather than ambient, and it extends the Molto name off the shelf and into the freezer cabinet, which is a different distribution problem entirely.
