The Tosa is a chocolate cake with a classic identity, made with cocoa shortcrust pastry, distinguished by its original double filling: one alone wouldn’t have been enough to express Dario Loison’s exuberant creativity… and he’s already working on the next flavors!
This cake is structured in three layers, three different textures to offer a multi-sensory pleasure with every bite: at the base is a crunchy shortcrust pastry enriched with butter and single-origin cocoa; followed by a first cream, which varies depending on the editions: salted caramel for the 2021 flavors and chocolate for the 2024 novelties; finally, the cake is completed with a second frangipane cream, which varies according to the flavor.

The result is an elegant flavor, sweetened by the presence of milk, making it creamier and more enveloping, perfect for the whole family.

HOW A NEW DESSERT IS BORN: THE INSPIRATION FROM MIRANDOLINA, THE EXUBERANT LANDLADY
When Dario and Edoardo Loison devised the recipe for the Tosa cake, they had in mind an enveloping dessert, inspired by an exuberant and sensual female figure, but also intelligent and contemporary. A cake as captivating as the Tosa could only be inspired by the legendary Mirandolina, the lively female protagonist of the play “La Locandiera” written by the Venetian Carlo Goldoni in 1752.
The charming Mirandolina runs an inn and attracts the attention of wealthy and noble clients eager for her affection, but she refuses marriage to preserve her freedom. In the end, however, she gives in only to the advances of her waiter Fabrizio, choosing him not out of love but because he will not be an obstacle to her independence. Mirandolina thus embodies an emancipated figure for the time, an intelligent woman who knows how to assert herself thanks to her strong character.
THE PACKAGING: A WINDOW OPEN TO LOISON’S FLAVOR
Inimitable for their extraordinary beauty, designed by Sonia Design, Loison’s packaging is continually perfected and renewed year after year for precision and effectiveness.
The eye is immediately drawn to the heart-shaped opening, a window onto Loison’s flavor that reveals its content. The Tosa cake is then revealed thanks to the unique book-like opening of the package, just like a casket that both protects the product and offers practicality at the same time. Only by opening the package can one appreciate the great commitment to research and study behind each project: from functionality to the richness of information, from attention to detail to transparency in communication.
