Fantes Cavatelli Maker Machine for Authentic Italian Pasta, The Italian Market Original since 1906

The machine came with a recipe for ricotta pasta and a mushroom thyme sauce. Made them both tonight and they were excellent. The only tweak I would recommend is the machine instructions recommend using a half inch in diameter rope of pasta to feed into the machine. This would cause the machine to spread the pasta into the sides and gum up the works. I’d recommend using a smaller sized flat rope starting at about maybe 3/8 of an inch and flattening it out before you feed it into the machine.This would give the machine space to spread the pasta across the blade without gathering up into the sides. And of course, you flour the hell out of everything to make sure nothing sticks. Would definitely recommend this to another pasta enthusiast.

Works great, make sure your dough isn’t too wet or sticky and it will work perfectly for you! Don’t even need eggs , I used half semolina, half all purpose flour, and added some salt and warm water. Then knead for a while, cover and let rest at least 10 minutes. Cut into smaller pieces, roll each one out like a snake, flatten it, and put it through the maker. So much fun!! I boil them a couple minutes and then add to some brown butter in a sauté pan with some cooked veggies. A little grated Parmesan on top , yum.

Title: Disappointing Experience – Missing Parts and Poor FunctionalityI was excited to try the Fante's Cavatelli Maker Machine for Authentic Italian Pasta, especially given its long history with The Italian Market. However, my experience was far from great.When I opened the box, I immediately noticed that some parts were missing. I was unable to assemble the machine properly, which completely ruined the experience. I tried contacting customer service, but the process has been slow and unhelpful.Additionally, even after I managed to use the machine, it didn’t work as expected. The dough didn’t come out right, and it was difficult to handle. The quality didn’t live up to the reputation or my expectations.Overall, I'm extremely disappointed with this purchase and would not recommend this product to anyone looking to make authentic pasta.

The box came smashed because it was placed in an envelope and the turning handle is very loose. Don’t know if it’s supposed to be like that or god damage I’m going to try it.

My brother and I use my mother‘s original machine to make cavatelli. It was on its last leg and literally falling apart after 80 years of use. We got this one and it’s a close second but it makes lines on the pasta instead of little pinholes like my mom’s used to, but that’s OK. It’s a good machine.

Works great, just as described. I used semolina flour. It probably took twenty minutes or so, just to make the cavatelli for dinner. Just sorry my Nonna or Mom didn't have one of these. 😆

I've been using it for a year and it works great. It will gum up if the pasta is too sticky but that would happen with any pasta maker. It's easy to use and clean.
