A story we write every
day with you beside us.
Idilia Foods first began in 1945 in Barcelona in a small bakery in the Gràcia neighbourhood. This was the beginning of a success story, the place ColaCao was first made to a secret recipe packed with magic and enthusiasm, and today, less than five people in the world know the formula. Over time, it became one of the country's favourite foods, to the point that every second, more than 50 glasses of ColaCao drinking chocolate are consumed in Spain.
This same magic and enthusiasm has soared as other brands have joined the company, such as Nocilla, a much-loved brand consumed by families across the country in the cosiest moments.
Our story is written every day with you beside us.
