Klara's story
Love in every step
of production
As long as my memories go, so does my love for pasta. A deeply etched image from my childhood is the image of my mother and grandmother kneading dough in the long winter evenings, our warm house filled with the crackling of the fire, the smell of flour and the joyful hum. I loved putting on an apron, taking a piece of dough, absorbing my nonna’s expert movements and trying to make shapes as similar as possible to hers. Even then, my love for tradition, but also my love for food, was deeply instilled in me.
Although I had a break during my education, my husband sealed the fateful connection with making traditional Istrian pasta. Drago is a chef and a passionate aficionado of fine food, and back in 1987, by founding a business, he boldly set out to implement our common ideas. We had a strong desire for as many people as possible to feel the magic of taste that only homemade pasta with a light sauce can evoke. The path was neither simple nor easy, but my husband’s determination and diligence were crucial, both in the beginning and throughout our entrepreneurial adventure, up until today.
We both grew up in Kanfanar, the most beautiful place in the very heart of Istria. It is a place with rich history, culture and tradition to which generations of our family are attached. The best feeling is doing what you love and being at home with your whole family and together creating the beauty of a brand that found its inspiration in that very place, in an old tradition..
We started with one small used machine and a huge will. Already in 2003, we built a modern production hall with a new production line for tagliatelle. We make our tagliatelle or lasagna as we call them ‘at home’ by rolling the dough, which is the highest quality, but also the most difficult way. Today, we are proud of our modern production facility, which is permanently updated according to the needs of the market, both in the segment of dry and frozen pasta.
The path of homemade Istrian pasta ‘Klara Marić’ started from local restaurants, hotels and small shops in the area. Today, we are present in all large and relevant retail chains in Croatia. We export to several European countries, the USA, etc. However, we are particularly proud that you can buy our pasta in Italy, the cradle of pasta. We passed on our love for tradition and pasta to our sons, who today, each in their own segment, contribute to the growth and development of the company.
