Lezza Spumoni & Desserts

Since 1905 Italy hasn’t been the same! It all started with a very special spumoni created and lovingly produced by Lezza Spumoni & Desserts, Inc. The origin of this spumoni is Naples, Italy and the recipe came to Chicago’s West Side with Salvatore Lezza in 1905. The recipe has been in the Lezza family for over 90 years.

Salvatore handed the secret of genuine spumoni down to his son Victor. Today, three generations of the Lezza family — the founder’s grandsons Victor Jr., Edward and Jack, their mother Rosemarie, and greatgrandsons Louis and Eddie — successfully run the company with that same old world flair.

The secret of spumoni wasn’t the only masterpiece passed down through the generations. Hundreds of recipes have been preserved and perfected keeping the Lezza tradition alive and chef-jping. Quality is the key characteristic of Lezza Spumoni & Desserts and is fully apparent in every product they create. See for yourself.

With the founder’s recipes in mind, the Lezzas warn you that when you’re in Italy, don’t be surprised if you get homesick for Lezza Genuine Spumoni & Desserts!
