Snack time plays an essential role in a child’s day: it provides energy, supports concentration, and helps build healthy eating habits. Choosing light products made with high-quality ingredients is therefore a daily gesture that can truly make a difference in their growth.

Golfera specialities are a valuable ally for parents: thanks to their delicate flavour and lightness, they can accompany children throughout the day, from a savoury breakfast to dinner. Among the cold cuts most loved by kids are Naturì Cooked Ham, Golfetta and San Valentino – products that combine quality, delicacy and practicality.

Golfetta: lightness and taste for little ones

San Valentino: the sweet cured ham children love

Among child-friendly cold cuts, San Valentino Prosciutto Crudo San Valentino Prosciutto Crudo (opens in a new tab) is loved for its sweet and delicate flavour. Made from 100% Italian pork legs from pigs raised according to PDO regulations, every slice comes from traditional processing with deboning while fresh – a method that encourages natural moisture evaporation, ensuring a soft and pleasant texture.

The reduced salting, done manually using techniques passed down through generations, creates an excellent balance between savouriness and sweetness, while long ageing develops an unmistakable aroma. Naturally gluten-free, lactose-free and free from preservatives, San Valentino is ideal for omelettes, finger sandwiches, cold pasta salads, milk-bread rolls or creative snacks for school.
