ITALIAN BABY ROMA TOMATOES
SWEET & FLOWERFUL
DATTERINI
Small in size but big on flavor, Datterini are baby plum tomatoes prized for their rich sweetness, aromatic intensity, and fleshy texture.
Grown and packed in Southern Italy, they are harvested seasonally from sun-ripened tomatoes and carefully hand-selected to preserve their natural integrity.
Naturally low in seeds and high in pulp, they are left unpeeled to retain texture and deliver a concentrated, vibrant tomato taste.
Their dense flesh and natural sweetness allow flavors to intensify under heat without losing structure. Ideal for bright, expressive sauces, gourmet pizzas, bruschetta, and simple roasted dishes where sweetness and depth bring dishes to life.
- Best for: Pizza, roasting
- Why: Naturally sweet and dense, they deliver concentrated flavor with low acidity.
- Cooking Style: Rich & Concentrated, builds sweetness and depth.

PROVENANCE
Datterini tomatoes are grown in Southern Italy, particularly in Campania and Puglia, where the Mediterranean climate supports slow ripening and naturally high sweetness. Harvested at peak maturity, they are processed within 24 hours to preserve freshness, texture, and flavor.
PREPARATION
Open the can and transfer the tomatoes to a bowl or directly into the pan. Datterini can be used whole, halved, or gently crushed by hand or with a fork, depending on the recipe. Using them whole or halved preserves their shape and sweetness, while lightly crushing a portion helps create a naturally rich sauce base. Avoid blending, which can dilute aroma and flatten their distinctive sweetness.
COOKING TIPS
- Use low to medium heat to gently caramelize their natural sugars without burning.
- Season with restraint - Datterini are naturally sweet and rarely need adjustment.
- They tolerate heat better than cherry tomatoes but should still not be aggressively boiled.
- Ideal for roasting and baking, where their dense flesh concentrates flavor without releasing excess liquid.
- Use whole or halved to preserve texture; crush only a small portion when a richer sauce base is needed.
- Pair with garlic, olive oil, chili, or woody herbs such as thyme or rosemary rather than delicate herbs.
COOKING IDEAS
Ideal for rich, naturally sweet tomato sauces and gourmet pizzas where depth and concentration matter. Excellent roasted or baked, where their high pulp and low juice allow flavors to intensify without breaking down. Well suited for bruschetta, focaccia toppings, and dishes where natural sweetness replaces the need for long reduction or added sugar.
COOKING TIME
- Quick sautés and sauces: 5–15 minutes
- Oven-baked or gently simmered preparations: up to 25 minutes
SERVINGS
One can serves approximately 1-3 people, depending on the recipe and use.
STORAGE
Once opened, transfer unused tomatoes to a non-metal container, refrigerate, and use within 3–4 days. For longer storage, freeze portions for up to 3 months.
