Galbani Double Cream Ricotta

Galbani Double Cream Ricotta is a rich, fresh Italian-style ricotta sold in a 15 oz plastic tub that you’ll find in the refrigerated cheese/dairy case — often tucked alongside other soft cheeses like mascarpone, cream cheese, burrata and specialty ricottas. The package leans on Italian heritage messaging (“No. 1 in Italy,” “Dal 1882”) and the simple-ingredient callout (“Made with 4 simple ingredients”) to position it as an authentic, home-cook friendly choice. Its target shopper tends to be a home baker or weekend cook who values tradition and indulgence: people buying ingredients for lasagna, cannoli, creamy pasta sauces, or a luxurious ricotta toast. Label characteristics emphasize naturalness (short ingredient list, no artificial preservatives listed) rather than organic or kid-focused branding; there’s a family-heritage, premium-but-approachable marketing angle. In plain processing terms it’s a fresh dairy product made from milk and cream coagulated with vinegar and lightly salted. Sensory notes: pale ivory, lusciously creamy and slightly grainy in texture, with a mild milky sweetness and a faint tang; it spreads and folds into batters smoothly. Typical rituals include spooning over grilled fruit, folding into cheesecake batter, stirring into hot pasta for a silky sauce, or dolloping on crostini at a gathering. Because it’s sold in a resealable tub it fits both single-meal uses and multi-day recipes, making it a versatile staple for holiday baking, brunch spreads, and everyday cooking in American groceries.
