You can find pretty much anything at Amazon these days, from frying pans to large kitchen appliances. But one of my latest obsessions is searching the retailer for hidden storefronts, like the secret Japanese outlet. Luckily for all my fellow pasta and pizza lovers out there, I recently found an Italian Amazon storefrontwhere you can buy affordable cookware, a clever cheese sprinkler, and more kitchen tools for making your favorite Italian dishes. I found the 11 best kitchen items at the made-in-Italy Amazon outlet, and they start at just $10.

Best Amazon Italian Outlet Finds Under $20

Ravelli Italy line 30 Nonstick Frying Pan

Amazon


Italy is known for its excellent pots and pans, and this 8-inch nonstick frying pan is an affordable introduction to Italian cookware. The surface of the pan is made with five layers of PFOA-free nonstick coating, and the bottom is specifically designed to distribute heat evenly. It’s even dishwasher-safe, which is a rarity with nonstick cookware.

The pan comes in four sizes, ranging from 8 to 13 inches, with the smallest size on sale for just $19.

Goodinger cocktail shaker

Amazon


While Italy is known for its fine wine, this Italian-made cocktail shaker will be a chic addition to your bar cart. The Godinger cocktail shaker is made with thick, heavy glass and has a built-in strainer. It’s simple, functional, and high-quality, plus you can see your drink as you shake and mix, in comparison to traditional metal cocktail shakers.

Eppicotispai EP 102 Collapsible Pasta Drying Rack

Amazon


Nothing beats fresh homemade pasta, but you’ll need a pasta drying rack to do it. This made-in-Italy drying rack is made with beechwood and offers 10 square feet of drying space. Plus, it conveniently folds flat for easy storage between pasta nights. “This is a must-have if you are looking to cook fresh long pasta,” one reviewer said. “It was so easy to assemble.”

Bormioli Rocco Officina 1825 Olive Oil Bottle

Amazon


There’s no better vessel for Italian-made olive oil than this Italian-made olive oil bottle from Bormioli Rocco. (You could use it for vinegar, too.) The simple, ridged design will complement any kitchen decor, and it’s accompanied by a stainless steel easy-to-dispense spout. “I love the size of this bottle, and the design makes it easy to grip!” one reviewer said.

Eppicotispai Birchwood Pizza Peel

Amazon


Whether you’re cooking up a pie in an outdoor pizza oven or on a pizza stone, you’ll need a pizza peel to transfer your dough in and out of the oven in one piece. This Eppicotispai pizza peel is made with lightweight birchwood and boasts about 12 x 10 inches of surface area. Plus, the Italian-made pizza peel is a great tool to have on hand for all sorts of baking projects — not just pizza.

Eppicotispai Aluminum Round Ravioli Stamp

Amazon


If you’ve mastered homemade fettuccine, try your hand at making ravioli with the filling of your choice. This rounded ravioli stamp cuts and crimps the edges of your 3-inch ravioli in one step, sealing the filling to survive boiling and adding that classic wavy edge. For just $12, the Eppicotispai ravioli stamp is an easy way to level up your homemade pasta and impress dinner party guests.

Sanelli Premana Professional Vegetable Knife

Amazon


While you won’t find a high-end knife set for under $20 at the Made in Italy Amazon outlet, this dishwasher-safe Sanelli vegetable knife is a steal for $16. The brand’s green and red handle is stylish and eye-catching, while the blade measures a little over 2 inches and is perfect for chopping ingredients, like carrots and parsley.

Bormioli Rocco Quattro Seasons Mason Jar

Amazon


While it may not be made from Venice’s famous Murano glass, this petite 8.5-ounce Mason jar comes in handy for making salad dressing, storing leftovers, or serving up cocktails. It’s a product of Italian glassware maker Bormioli Rocco, which has been around since 1825. “These Mason jars are so pretty and great quality, both the glass jar and the aluminium lid,” one shopper said. “Totally recommended and 100% Italian-made.”

Fante’s Champagne Stoppers

Amazon


Because of the bubbles, a regular wine stopper typically won’t cut it when you’ve got a half-empty bottle of champagne on your hands. However, Fante’s Champagne Stoppers are strong enough to preserve your bubbly, thanks to the stainless steel frame and silicone gasket. You’ll get two stoppers for $17 at Amazon’s Italian storefront, which is much cheaper than a wasted bottle of top-shelf champagne.

Snips Cheese Sprinkler

Amazon


Whether topping spaghetti or pepperoni pizza, Parmesan cheese is a staple for most Italian dinners (and shockingly high in protein). The Snips Cheese Sprinkler is easy to fill and dispense, evenly distributing the cheese and keeping it fresh for your next pasta night. “It has a neat little twist action in the lid that breaks up any clumps, so it delivers a sprinkling of your grated cheese to your food,” one reviewer said.

Tenartis 469 Professional Pizza Dough Spatula & Scraper

Amazon


If you’re a fan of making and shaping your own pizza dough, then this professional-quality spatula is worth the somewhat high price tag of $19. The stainless steel scraper has a flat side that makes it easy to release the dough after rising or cut it as needed.

One reviewer ditched their cheaper spatula for this one and says it was worth the upgrade. “This one is just the right size and feels well-made, with quality materials,” they said. “It’s very solid and sturdy, but still has just enough flexibility to get under the dough when removing from the box.”
