There’s just something magical about Italian food—the way it brings people together, the way it makes you close your eyes with that first bite. The rich flavors, the love poured into every dish, the ingredients that speak for themselves. That’s what Slice of Italy is all about. They bring real-deal Italian cuisine right to your doorstep here in Australia. Whether you’re whipping up a pasta night with the family, curating a show-stopping charcuterie board for friends, or hunting for a gourmet gift that says you’re special, Slice of Italy delivers the full Italian experience—minus the airfare.
Authenticity You Can Taste
You know that feeling when you dig into a plate of gnocchi and it’s so pillowy, so delicate, it could’ve come straight from a tiny family-run trattoria in Rome? That’s the kind of experience Slice of Italy creates with every product they offer.
They don’t just stock Italian food—they celebrate it. Everything is imported directly from trusted producers in Italy who’ve been doing this for generations. You can taste the craftsmanship in every bite.
A few must-haves from their pantry:
• De Cecco pasta—a cult favorite that cooks up perfectly al dente every time.
• San Marzano tomatoes—sweet, rich, and perfect for simmering into a silky sauce.
• Handmade gnocchi—so light and tender it almost melts on the tongue.
• Parmigiano Reggiano, creamy burrata, prosciutto di Parma, Calabrese salami—basically, your dream antipasto board in one place.
• Cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil from Tuscany and 12-year-old balsamic vinegar— liquid gold.
And if you’ve got a sweet tooth like me, don’t sleep on their best Italian desserts in Australia—think traditional Amaretti cookies, velvety espresso, and the ultimate nightcap: chilled limoncello.
You can tell each item is chosen with care—the kind of quality Nonna would insist on if she were shopping for Sunday lunch. It's the easiest (and tastiest) way to recreate an authentic Italian meal at home, even if you're just in your PJs.
Perfect for Gifting & Entertaining
Let’s be real—there are gift baskets, and then there are Italian gift baskets. The kind that makes people’s eyes light up and their mouths water. Slice of Italy doesn’t do generic. They’ve crafted a collection of gift hampers that feel luxurious, thoughtful, and, most importantly, delicious.
I recently gave one to a friend for her birthday—a Prosecco & Antipasto hamper—and the look on her face when she saw the truffle cheese, Sicilian olives, and crisp bubbly? Pure joy. And yes, we opened it immediately and turned her kitchen into an impromptu office.
A few fan-favorite hampers:
• Truffle Lover’s Hamper – If you know someone who swoons over anything truffle, this is their heaven in a box. Truffle pasta, truffle cheese, truffle oil… need I say more?
• Prosecco & Antipasto Set—Sparkling wine, artisan cured meats, marinated goodies—it’s the ultimate “host-with-the-most” move.
• Italian Coffee & Biscotti Collection—Because a perfect cup of espresso deserves a perfect crunchy almond cookie alongside it.
Whether it’s a birthday, a thank-you, a holiday gift, or just a “thinking of you,” these hampers feel like a warm Italian hug. It’s a way to share a little piece of Italy with the people you love.
Convenience & Reliability
If you’ve ever tried ordering gourmet food online, you know it can be a bit of a gamble. Will the cheese arrive fresh? Will the wine bottle survive the trip? With Slice of Italy, you don’t have to worry.

I’ve had fresh burrata and artisan pasta show up on my doorstep in perfect condition—and let me tell you, nothing beats that unboxing moment when you know your weekend dinner plans just got a whole lot tastier.
