Marcato Pasta Fresca Electric Dough Mixer and Pasta Machine

✔ Free cleaning brush included (add before checkout)

Add the free cleaning brush to your basket when purchasing the Pasta Fresca. The brush will only be included if it is added before checkout.

The Pasta Fresca combines an electric dough mixer and a pasta machine in a single unit. You add flour and your other ingredients, close the lid, and the 170W motor kneads the dough to a consistent, elastic texture in three minutes. Once kneaded, the dough feeds directly into the rolling and cutting unit, which handles lasagne sheets, fettuccine and tagliolini using the same anodised aluminium roller technology as Marcato's manual machines. The whole process from ingredients to cut pasta requires no hand-kneading and no separate equipment. It is the most self-contained fresh pasta setup Marcato makes.

The Mixer

The motor handles up to 500g of flour per cycle, kneading it to hand-kneaded quality in three minutes. The locking safety lid stays closed during operation. Beyond pasta, the machine handles bread dough, pizza dough, shortcrust pastry, doughnut dough and sweet biscuit doughs, making it useful as a general-purpose compact mixer. A measuring tool for flour and ingredients is included.

• 170W motor, handles up to 500g of flour per cycle
• 3-minute knead time to elastic, consistent dough
• Locking safety lid
• Suitable for pasta, bread, pizza, doughnuts and biscuit doughs

The Pasta Attachments

Three cutting attachments are included. The rolling unit has a 10-position thickness dial running from 4.8mm down to 0.6mm, the same range as the manual Atlas machines. Attachments clip on and off via the same fitting. Additional Pasta Fresca-compatible attachments are available separately for more shapes, including spaghetti, capellini, bigoli, pappardelle, lasagnette and trenette.

Fitted with a UK plug.

Why Choose the Pasta Fresca

Every other Marcato machine assumes you are bringing ready-made dough to it. The Pasta Fresca handles the kneading as well, which removes the most physically demanding part of fresh pasta from the process. If you make pasta regularly, knead by hand, and find it tiring or time-consuming, this is the machine that solves that problem. It is also the right choice if you want a single piece of equipment that covers dough preparation for pasta, bread and pizza rather than separate tools for each. The footprint is compact for what it does at 310 x 155mm.
