The Little Mama machine prepares homemade pasta such as smooth or grooved cavatelli and gnocchetti quickly and easily.

Whether making using the more old-fashioned semolina flour and water pasta dough, or making ricotta cavatelli, arguably the most rigorous step is forming the tiny cavatelli themselves. Once ready and rested, cavatelli dough must be cut into smaller sections and rolled out into long, thin logs, then individually cut and shaped. In order to shape an efficient system would be to use a machine like the Italian-made Little Mamma Cavatelli Maker.

A simple, table mounted cavatelli maker using a series of rollers and a rotating cutting arm, the handy cavatelli maker turns long strands of pasta into individually formed cavatelli quickly and easily. The little logs of dough are fed into one side of the unit, fed through the rollers (for shaping), cut into uniform pieces and fed out the other side - all powered by the turn of a single crank handle! The Little Mamma Cavatelli Maker uses tough, corrosion resistant food safe nylon and this increases robustness and longevity, and makes it easy to clean. The nylon rollers are set in a solid aluminium body that locks onto tabletops or work surfaces for steady, stress-free operation.
