Pasta Rummo New Pasta Shapes — Potato Gnocchi, Fusilli Corti Bucati and Stelline — launched in the U.S. on October 1, 2026 for National Pasta Month, marking the sixth-generation Italian maker’s continued expansion beyond its Classic and Gluten Free lines, priced $3.99–$4.49.
What Pasta Rummo New Pasta Shapes Offer
According to the official PR Newswire release from Pasta Rummo, all three products are made with Italian semolina and no preservatives, using the brand’s signature Lenta Lavorazione® slow-processing method:
- Potato Gnocchi ($4.49 MSRP) — made with fresh Italian potatoes, cooks in two minutes, holds its shape without turning sticky.
- Fusilli Corti Bucati ($3.99 MSRP) — a spiral-shaped hollow pasta designed to trap sauce in every bite.
- Stelline ($3.99 MSRP) — tiny star-shaped pasta suited to soups and broths.
“As we celebrate our 180th anniversary, we’re proud to continue expanding our offerings with products that make authentic Italian cuisine more accessible to U.S. consumers,” said Antonio Rummo, President of Rummo USA, in the release. Pasta Rummo is also the first pasta brand to have its “al dente” performance certified by independent third-party Bureau Veritas, and the company says it has been the fastest-growing pasta brand in the U.S. for more than seven years.
The new shapes are rolling out at Whole Foods and other national retailers alongside Rummo’s existing Classic and Gluten Free lines.
Does This Affect a Recipe You’re Planning to Make?
If you’re stocking up for soup season, our Cottage Cheese Alfredo Sauce and One Pot French Onion Pasta recipes both work well with a short, sauce-grabbing shape like Fusilli Corti Bucati, and Stelline is a natural swap into any broth-based soup recipe.

Is This Common?
A long-established Italian pasta maker adding new shapes during National Pasta Month is a routine, seasonally timed expansion rather than a surprise. What’s notable is the specificity of the brand’s claims — a named 180th anniversary, a named third-party “al dente” certification body (Bureau Veritas), and a specific multi-year “fastest growing” claim — which go beyond generic launch-copy language, though the fastest-growing claim’s underlying data was not published with the release.
