About us
Creating
small, meaningful moments
Idilia is a family food business. Their beginnings lead us to 1945, when in a small workshop in the Gracia neighborhood of Barcelona, a unique product and brand were born that revolutionized breakfasts: ColaCao. A cocoa that not only enriched the milk but also was doing something special: turning a routine moment into a unique and pleasurable moment.
Something else was also being born: a company with a soul, committed to children and to society. Today we continue striving to make our purpose a reality: to create small, meaningful moments Idilia. These moments are full of pleasure and positive emotions that comfort our day-to-day lives.
