Marcato Flour & Sugar Dispenser

The Marcato Dispenser is a compact Italian-made flour shaker built for everyday pasta making and baking.

A compact, well-made flour shaker from Marcato's Design line. Fill it with flour to dust fresh pasta or your work surface, icing sugar to finish biscuits and cakes, or cocoa powder to top a cappuccino. The stainless steel mesh sifts evenly whether you're using fine 00 flour or a coarser semolina. It's a small tool that earns its counter space.

Design & Build

The dispenser is made from food-grade anodised aluminium alloy, coloured through an oxidation process that keeps the finish food-safe and durable. The locknuts are chrome steel, the sieve mesh is stainless steel. It's part of Marcato's Design line, so it's built to sit on display alongside your pasta machine rather than be hidden in a drawer. Available in a choice of colours to match or complement other Marcato accessories.

What You Can Use It For

It's most useful when making fresh pasta at home: a light, even coating of flour stops sheets from sticking as they come off the machine. Beyond pasta, it works just as well for:

• Dusting baking tins or dough boards with flour
• Finishing biscuits, cakes, or pastries with icing sugar
• Sprinkling cocoa powder or cinnamon over desserts or hot drinks
• Topping cappuccinos or adding spices to savoury dishes

Cleaning & Care

The dispenser dismantles easily for cleaning. Wipe down with a dry cloth or brush between uses. Do not put it in the dishwasher or clean with metal implements, as this will damage the anodised surface.

• Do not use in the dishwasher
• Do not clean with metal objects
• Clean with a dry cloth, toothpick, or small brush

Why Choose the Marcato Dispenser

Most flour shakers are plastic, lightweight in the wrong way, and awkward to hold. The Marcato Dispenser is properly weighted, sits securely in the hand, and the mesh is fine enough to give a controlled dusting rather than a clump. If you already own a Marcato pasta machine or accessories, it slots neatly into the same aesthetic.

What is the Marcato Dispenser made from?

The body is food-grade anodised aluminium alloy, coloured through an oxidation process. The locknuts are chrome steel and the sieve mesh is stainless steel. All materials are food-safe.

Can I use it with semolina or coarser flour?

Yes. The stainless steel mesh handles most grades of flour, including semolina and less-refined flours, as well as fine powders like icing sugar and cocoa.

Is the Marcato Dispenser dishwasher safe?

No. The anodised aluminium finish will be damaged in the dishwasher. Clean it by dismantling and wiping with a dry cloth or a small brush.

What sizes does it come in?

The Marcato Dispenser comes in one standard size, approximately 5 inches (12.5cm) tall and 2.5 inches (6.5cm) in diameter. It's compact enough to sit on the counter without taking up much space.

Does it work with the Marcato Atlas pasta machine?

It's not a mechanical attachment, but it's a natural companion to the Atlas 150. Use it to dust pasta sheets with flour as they come off the rollers to prevent sticking.

Italian Kitchen Equipment You Can Trust

An independent UK specialist for Italian-made pasta and pizza tools, kitchen equipment and more.

Pasta Kitchen launched in 2016 with a straightforward aim: stock the tools that actually make a difference when you're cooking Italian food at home. We're a family-run business, and Italian cooking tools are genuinely what we know. We've been selling Marcato pasta machines and Eppicotispai tools the entire time, and every product we add to the range gets used and tested by our team at home before it goes on the site.

The range has grown a lot since then, but the approach hasn't. We choose products we believe in, from brands that have been making them properly for decades. Almost everything we sell is made in Italy. Marcato pasta machines are manufactured in Campodarsego, near Padova. Berkel slicers and knives are made in Italy, in the province of Varese. Cerutti Inox and Eppicotispai are Italian-made brands we've carried for years.

We're an authorised UK retailer for the brands we carry. Everything is supplied with UK-compatible plugs where applicable, VAT is included in the price, and there are no import duties or customs surprises on delivery.* You may be able to find some of these products cheaper from overseas sellers, but what you won't get is UK warranty support, correct specifications for the UK market, or anyone to call if something goes wrong.

*UK orders only. Shipping restrictions and import duties may apply for orders outside the UK.
