La Giostra dei Bambini (Children’s Carousel) pasta has all the quality, taste and nutritious benefits, which Garofalo pasta is known for. The pasta is high in carbohydrates, protein and fibre, perfect for active, growing children. The fun shapes and rough texture helps the sauce cling to the pasta to create a tasty meal for children from 12 months.
Pazzielle is the Neapolitan word for toys.
Garofalo has been making pasta for over 300 years in Gragnano near Naples in Italy, the home of pasta. Made from 100% robust desert durum wheat and shaped using a bronze die gives Garofalo pasta its premium taste and texture.

Instructions
Bring a large pan of water to the boil and add salt if required. Keeping the water at a rolling boil add the amount of pasta needed. Stir with a wooden spoon to prevent the pasta sticking together and to avoid damaging the pasta. Cook for the recommended time, drain and serve.
Recipe
Traffic Light Pasta.
Cars and little trucks feature amongst the shapes in Pazzielle, so I thought a traffic light theme might be quite fun. Involving children in the cooking process not only teaches the a valuable life skill, but it also encourages them to want to eat the food they have helped to make, so for this recipe you can all get cracking on the job of de-seeding and cubing the tomatoes. To make this more `grown up' add some chopped sun blush tomatoes and a tablespoon or two of pesto.

Kiss are amazed
My kids absolutely love these toy pasta and they are perfect for lunch box
Scooby Doo!!!
At the moment this is Scooby Doo pasta shapes! It has Scooby, the Mystery Machine, and ghosts. It's nice tasting pasta. I've found that it takes more than the recommended time to cook it through, I add an extra 4-5 mins so that it doesn't have hard chewy bits in the middle.
scooby doo?!
Surely this is Scooby Doo pasta? Ghosts, the dog and van? Sounds like theres some distribution errors too with the beetles
Purchased July onwards - no insects
took the gamble as this is my boy's favourite pasta - no insects thankfully
Confirming Insects in multiple packets
Have been buying Garofolo pasta for years, so shocked to discover tiny brown beetles wedged in the kids’ ‘Toys’ pasta in recent months. This particular product has been discounted recently…Ocado, please check!
Beware! Many Insects inside the package!!
When I was cooking those pasta for kids, I noticed that some small black spots were floating in the boiled water. When I watched them carefully, I found out they were insects (small beetles)!! I bought 10 packages, so I checked all the unpacked ones, then I found out all of them had crawling insects inside. Beware!!
