What’s in a name?
Quite a bit, actually. Stuzzicare is Italian for “to Stimulate, to Excite, to Tease.” Life is short. Get frisky, add more spice.




Spicy Sophistication
We are not here to challenge anybody. We care less about how much heat one can take and more about having spice balanced with exciting flavor. Stuzzi is about elevating your favorite foods, not covering them up.
