Induction Tigelliera / Crescentine Iron for Tigelle

£112.00

An induction ready, heavy, cast aluminium tigelliera iron for making delicious tigelle.

The tigelliera iron cooks seven tigelle at a time and uses a radiant ring system for more even cooking.

Tigelle breads are made from flour, water, salt and yeast and are traditionally cut in half whilst hot and served filled with cold meats or spreads. They are similar to an english muffin and should have a slightly crisp exterior and soft fluffy interior.

Tigelle originate from Modena, Emilia-Romagna.

Suitable for induction, gas and electric hobs.

Advice for first use: Grease the mould with a little oil and wipe off any excess with kitchen paper.

USA Customers Tariff Information:

From 29th August 2025, the 'De Minimis' tariff exception on goods valued up to $800 imported into the USA has been removed.  Most goods entering the USA will now be subject to tariffs, whose amount will vary depending on the country in which the goods were made.

Packaging

What's inside?
A sneak peek to show you how we package up our parcels.

Each item is scrutinised before being sent. We only send items that reach our quality standards. Wooden items, such as handles, might feel a bit rough from the manufacturer. Our team in the UK hand sand some of these items to make sure the item is at its best.

We hand wrap delicate items before sending them to you to ensure they are protected and reach you in perfect condition. We don't believe in excessive packaging and believe the tools speak for themselves.

We hope to do our bit for the environment and reduce plastic waste. Most of our packaging is paper based and is non-laminated, which can be easily recycled or composted at home.

We aim to reuse materials and packaging where possible and this is usually the only plastic you will find in your parcel. This plastic protection can also be recycled.
