Wholesale Italian Mints
Filter
Italian mints here go from sugar-free stevia ones to glacial hard candy. Filled bonbons and natural mint pieces are in there too. The makers are Mangini and Sperlari, plus Serra. All of it’s imported from Italy, and you buy by the case.
Italian mints carry their flavor with some depth. Look at the herbal Fernet-flavored Mangini piece. Sperlari’s Polaris is clean and cold. Serra’s Torino uses natural mint extract. Domestic mint candy doesn’t quite match any of them. We carry 13 SKUs from these three producers, in cases of 1.5 to 3.53 lb, with a fair sugar-free selection.
Mangini’s mint range
Mangini has the widest spread. Its Mint Sugar-Free Candy with Stevia is the sugar-free anchor, a clean mint in a retail bag. Bye Polar Mini Mint Candy and Bye Polar Mint Mini Hard Candy are the small ones. They suit a bulk bin or a counter. Both Bye Polar items are ordinary sweetened mint hard candy.
Two Mangini items break the standard mint mold. Menta Fernet Mint & Amaro Filled Candy has a mint shell around an amaro center. Amaro is an Italian bitter herbal liqueur. It’s an adult flavor with no domestic equivalent. It sells where customers already know amaro, like Italian import grocers. Ice Menta Natural Mint Candy uses natural mint extract instead of artificial flavor. Menta Piemonte Square Hard Mint is a regional piece, since Piemonte (Piedmont) has its own mint candy tradition. The square is a nod to the classic shape.
The Mangini Noblesse Choco Mint Dark Chocolate Bonbon is mint and chocolate in one. Dark chocolate outside, mint center. It gives accounts a mint-chocolate SKU next to the straight mint candy.
Sperlari Polaris: the glacial mint specialist
Sperlari’s Polaris is the strongest mint in the Italian lineup. Polaris Glaciar Mint Hard Candy comes in single bags and multi-pack Italian Bags. There’s a Large Bag and a standard bulk format too. The name and the ‘glaciar’ tag tell you how cold it gets. If you stock breath mints or strong mint candy for adults, it’s the one we’d suggest. Retail-ready bags and bulk both work, depending on how you merchandise.
Serra Menta Torino
Serra Menta Torino Mint Candy is Turin-style. Torino (Turin) has its own confection tradition and the piece reflects it. It’s a hard mint with a flavor a little different from the Mangini or Sperlari ones, so you get some variety instead of the same profile three times.
Sugar-free depth
Sugar-free coverage is decent. Mangini Mint Sugar-Free with Stevia is the main one. If you’re building a sugar-free candy section that includes mints, an Italian sugar-free mint next to the usual domestic options sets the shelf apart.
Who buys Italian mints wholesale
- Italian specialty food stores and delis know the Mangini Fernet-filled mint and the Serra Menta Torino. Import buyers ask for both.
- Import grocers with a European candy section can use Italian mints to fill out an Italy shelf that otherwise leans on chocolate and licorice, plus hard candy.
- Specialty food retailers can offer the Mangini Noblesse Choco Mint bonbon and the amaro-filled candy to adult shoppers.
- Natural food stores have Mangini Natural Mint and the stevia sugar-free items.
Italian mints in the broader European mint category
American mint candy tends to go very high on menthol or very mild on sweetness. Italian mints sit somewhere else. The Mangini Menta Piemonte Square Mint is refined and slightly complex. It’s European without being overpoweringly medicinal. The Sperlari Polaris line goes the other way. It’s cold and clean, and it gets there through a different formulation than American super-mints.
If you’re building a European confection section, Italian mints belong next to Italian hard candy and licorice. A shelf with Mangini sugar-free mints and Sperlari Polaris bags can cover most mint shoppers. Add Serra Menta Torino and the Mangini Fernet-filled piece, and you’ve reached from casual buyers to connoisseurs. With 13 SKUs there’s enough for a sub-section of its own.
Italian mints for food-service and hospitality
Mints work outside the candy aisle too. The Mangini Bye Polar minis are small enough for a dish on a restaurant table or a hotel check-in counter. Sperlari Polaris bags suit a bar or lounge. A restaurant could plate the Mangini Noblesse Choco Mint bonbon with dessert, where an imported Italian chocolate mint beats a plain domestic one.
Italian mints as a upsell within the Italian candy section
For Italian specialty shops, mints sell easily next to the hard candy and licorice. Someone buying Mangini hard candy can be nudged toward a Mangini sugar-free mint or a Sperlari Polaris bag if they’re displayed together. ‘Same brand, mint version’ is an easy line. It only needs clear sections so the link is obvious.

Frequently Asked Questions
What brands are in the Italian mints wholesale range?
Mangini has the widest range, from an amaro-filled mint to a stevia sugar-free one. It also makes the dark chocolate mint bonbon. Sperlari’s Polaris line handles the glacial end. Serra carries the Turin-style mint. All three are Italian imports.
Are there sugar-free Italian mints available?
Yes. Mangini’s Mint Sugar-Free Candy with Stevia is the one to start with. It’s sweetened with stevia, tastes of clean mint and comes in a retail bag.
What’s the Mangini Fernet-filled mint?
The Menta Fernet Mint & Amaro Filled Candy is a hard mint with an amaro center, the Italian bitter herbal liqueur. It’s one for adults. Italian import grocers and specialty food stores carry that kind of thing. The amaro flavor is herbal and distinctive, so it’s not really kids’ candy.
What’s the minimum order?
One case. Weights run 1.5 to 3.53 lb. The Sperlari Polaris Large Bag is among the heavier cases, a good fit if your store moves a lot of mints.
