About Mama DePandi
Born in Naples, Italy, Mama DePandi has always had a passion for sharing her home-cooked meals with family and friends. Upon moving to America with her husband Eduardo and their three children, to pursue the American dream, it was Mama’s deep-rooted love for authentic Italian cooking that kept the family connected around the table every night and laid the foundation for something truly special to come.
Mama’s youngest daughter, Giuliana, along with her husband Bill, later opened their successful RPM Restaurants, where Mama DePandi's Bucatini Pomodoro quickly became a bestseller. Patrons traveled from far and wide for this dish, which inspired the launch of the Mama DePandi brand. For the first time ever, Mama's signature Pomodoro Di Mama sauce has been jarred, allowing you to enjoy this authentic Neapolitan cuisine from the comfort of your own kitchen.
Now, in her 80’s, Mama DePandi is accomplishing her lifelong dream of sharing her food with the world, proving that it's never too late to follow your dreams. The brand's journey, rooted in Mama's legacy of passion, pride, and culinary delight, strongly believes that food is an experience—one that evokes emotions and fosters connections around the table.
