FAQ
Where is Mortadella Favola made and what is its history?
Mortadella Favola — 'Fable' — by Felsineo is one of the most prestigious and well-known premium Mortadellas in Italy: Felsineo, a company from the Bologna area, has created in the Favola a Mortadella that, through an increased proportion of premium pork, more precise seasoning and a finer texture than standard Mortadella, dissolves the boundary between cured meat and delicatessen. The name 'Favola' — Fable or Fairy Tale — is an allusion to the exceptional quality of the product: a Mortadella so good it sounds like a fairy tale. Felsineo was founded in 1947 in Bologna and grew into one of the reference producers of Mortadella Bologna PGI, with a strong orientation towards premium gastronomic catering and international export. The Favola is the flagship product of this strategy: a product that maximises the classic organoleptic parameters of Mortadella Bologna — colour, texture, seasoning, fat-meat balance — and is presented in an elegant packaging that gives Mortadella a place alongside top products like Culatello and Prosciutto di Parma Riserva.
