Assuming you would like a history on the company: Ticino Massa (also known as Massa Ticino) is a brand of sugar paste/fondant and other cake decorating supplies that was created in Switzerland in the 1950s. The company is now based in the United States and is owned by Wilton Brands, Inc. Ticino Massa was created by Swiss confectioner Domenico Tessaro. Tessaro was born in Ticino, Switzerland in 1898. He apprenticed under a local confectioner and eventually opened his own shop in Lugano, Switzerland. In the 1950s, Tessaro developed a new type of sugar paste/fondant that could be rolled very thin without breaking. This sugar paste/fondant became known as Massa Ticino. The Massa Ticino brand was originally distributed only in Europe. In the 1980s, the brand was introduced to the United States market by John Nese, owner of cake decorating supplies store Fantasyland in Hollywood, California. Nese had been searching for a European-style sugar paste/fondant to sell in his store and came across Massa Ticino while on a trip to Switzerland. He liked the product so much that he decided to start importing it into the United States. Today, Massa Ticino is one of the most popular brands of sugar paste/fondant among cake decorators and sugar artists. The brand offers a wide range of products, including pre-made icing and decorations, as well as tools and ingredients for making your own sugar paste/fondant creations.
