    Description

    You are looking at a Vintage Vitantonio Model 50 Cavatelli Gnocchi Pasta Maker that I modified to work on the KitchenAid Stand Mixer.
    This will work on EVERY KitchenAid Stand mixer made since 1937
    , and any appliance with a #10 Hobart tapered attachment hub, including the Hobart N50 mixer.
    Please verify your mixer has a #10 hub before ordering
    .
    Vitantonio cavatelli makers haven't been produced in many decades. These vintage units are better built and have heavier gears than new machines. The machine you see in the photos is the one you will receive. It is ready to make fresh cavatelli and gnocchi in your kitchen. Included is a reprinted recipe booklet, and a 90-day warranty. Sorry, no box. The mixer is not included.
    Vintage Vitantonio #50s come in two versions: the round head, and the rectangular head. The round heads are earlier versions, but internally, and functionally they are no different than the rectangular head. Any differences are cosmetic.
    These are modified to a high standard, and I've been doing it for well over three years, and I have gotten really good response and feedback. I make this by marrying a cavatelli maker with a KitchenAid mount, and it's more involved than one might think.  Many of these have found homes in restaurant kitchens where they get really hard use. A chef/owner of an Italian restaurant in White Plains, New York, bought one in November 2018, and then contacted me in six-months later to say his "cavatelli machine is still going strong" and he wanted to buy another one. I think that's a testament to their durability.
    Let the photos be your guide. The photos are of the actual Cavatelli Maker you will receive.
    The mixer is not included.

    Addendum:

    I'm not an expert on pasta although I once cooked professionally in another life. The shape of the cavatelli you produce will be affected by the thickness, width, moisture content, and hardness or softness of the dough strip being fed into the maker.
    Happy Pasta Making!
