It was in 1920, on the occasion of the first Alpine gathering, that that dessert, much appreciated by customers, took the name "TORTA ORTIGARA"®,in memory of the toughest battle fought in the mountains of the Asiago Plateau during the First World War.

A few years later, at the International Exhibition Art Trade Science Industry in Rome Giovanni Carli,joined by his sisters in the management of the family business, received the Insigne Cross and the Gold Medal in the specialty "Paste and Sweets" with the Ortigara Cake®.

And this was but the first of many accolades that this simple and inimitable dessert has earned over the years. In addition to being mentioned in the most prestigious national guides and newspapers (such as the Express, Republic, Corriere del Veneto, Slow Food, etc.), in particular the Ortigara Cake® has been included by the Ministry of Agricultural Policy in the list of Traditional Agricultural Products.

Continuing the activity were Giovanni's daughters, Paola and Franca,and now their daughters and grandchildren,who still carry on the family's business and confectionery tradition with passion and commitment.
