Mutti has taken tomato love to new heights with its 'Make it Mutti' sensory dining experience at London’s iconic Saatchi Gallery. For three nights guests were transported to the sun-soaked fields of Parma, Italy—home of the famed Mutti tomatoes—through a sensory dining experience culinary adventure. Hosted by Italian chef Gennaro Contaldo, the immersive event mixed mouthwatering dishes with cutting-edge projection mapping, showcasing the life cycle of the tomato in spectacular style.

The three-course feast turned dining tables into living canvases, with visuals of Mutti’s tomatoes growing, ripening, and reaching their flavourful peak. Diners devoured a tomato millefeuille, mascarpone tortelloni, and a show-stopping tomato-shaped panna cotta, each dish made with Mutti and paired perfectly with stunning visual storytelling.

This wasn’t just a dinner—it was a celebration of Mutti’s 120-year heritage and commitment to sustainability, with CEO Francesco Mutti on hand to share stories of the brand’s deep-rooted values. Blending tradition and innovation, Mutti reminded everyone why they’re not just any tomato brand—they’re the tomato brand. With a legacy like theirs, one thing is clear: when it comes to tomatoes, you need to Make it Mutti.
