Mulino Bianco Galletti are one of Italy’s most iconic breakfast biscuits, produced by Mulino Bianco, the beloved bakery brand of Barilla that has been part of Italian family traditions since 1974. Instantly recognizable by their distinctive shape featuring a small galloping rooster (galletto), these cookies have become a staple of Italian breakfast tables for generations.
Made with fresh Italian milk, Galletti are known for their delicate flavor and light, crisp texture. Unlike richer butter cookies, they offer a more balanced sweetness and a clean, wholesome taste, making them especially popular for dipping into coffee, cappuccino, tea, or milk.
Their simple recipe reflects Mulino Bianco’s philosophy of creating everyday biscuits inspired by traditional Italian home baking. For many Italians, Galletti are synonymous with childhood breakfasts and morning rituals.
