Giveaway – Win A Casa Italia Hamper

I have always preferred a ‘picky’ style of eating. I briefly wrote about it when I introduced my favourite smorgasbord but it is the perfect way to try lots of different things without getting full too quickly and missing out. Spanish will always be my cuisine of choice but Italian is something I have really missed during lockdown. Luckily for me, I discovered Casa Italia and they have given me the best prize to giveaway so you can try it too. There are more details of how to enter at the bottom of this post.

Casa Italia are a restaurant and deli located in both Didsbury and Wilmslow. As with many restaurant businesses, they have turned their hand to delivery during lockdown but are also offering delivery of their deli items. The selection is incredible and they kindly sent me over some items to try.

The only way to start an Italian feast is with olives, olive oil and ciabatta. The products from Casa Italia are authentic and this lemon olive oil has a zesty freshness that works beautifully with the rich, flavourful ciabatta.

Next I plated the gorgeous cured meats and a cheese board of champions with the creamiest burrata I have ever eaten. I adore burrata so much, that soft and creamy centre is just delicious spread on crusty bread.  The meats and cheeses from Casa Italia are cut to order so you won’t get more than you need, making it a lovely idea if you are living alone or are the only one in the house who will eat a cheeseboard.

After all that delicious antipasti, I had very little room left but the ready meals looked too good to resist and the lasagne is as authentic as you can get. You can either order a single serving size or a tray to feed the family and it is the same as what you would get if you ordered in a good Italian restaurant. It is my main of choice and I was really impressed with how it arrived with instructions to heat and serve. There is a good amount of rich, slow cooked bolognese and creamy béchamel topped with parmesan for that uniquely Italian flavour. If lasagne isn’t your thing, you can also pick up authentic Italian pasta and use it to whip your favourite dish in minutes.

I know I was said I was full before the main but I have a separate part of my stomach for dessert and the selection from Casa Italia is worth ordering, even if it is just for the cannoli. Fragrant pastry tubes are filled with sweet ricotta and dipped in dried fruit and nuts. The Tiramisu is also exceptional with a moist sponge, thick layers of mascarpone and a touch of marsala wine for added richness. They were the perfect end to a perfect Italian feast and now you can tuck in at home with our giveaway.

As well as the impressive selection of Italian food items, they also have some lovely drink options of both the alcohol and none alcohol variety. I tried this beautiful bottle of red wine that is fruity yet smooth so perfect to enjoy with that meat and cheese board.
