Quick Update on Mission: ImPASTAble The last week and a half has been incredible. We sold our initial batch of 3700 boxes of cascatelli in less than TWO HOURS! We started taking orders for a second batch of 8000 boxes (a number we had to commit to before the pasta went on sale) and that was gone in 12 hours. We switched to selling 5lb bulk bags and sold so many of those that we couldn't find enough semolina to keep up — but now we've got a plan to get more paper back in stock for boxes, so we're back to selling four-packs. Janie has gone from skeptic to believer to offering to drive up to Sfoglini to help pack the pasta.   And ICYMI: I'd love for you to check out the segment I did with CBS This Morning, which aired over the weekend. Or if you want a laugh, might I suggest this NSFW comment from an Italian Redditor?   All this is to say that I'm so grateful for your incredible response to my new pasta shape. Keep those orders coming! Orders placed now will ship in approximately 10-12 weeks. I really appreciate your patience. I promise this pasta will be worth the wait!   Want to see more photos and videos from my journey? Follow me on Instagram. Send Us Your Questions!
