Molino Paolo Mariani Delta is a versatile Italian Tipo 1 Monocultivar flour designed for the daily work of bakers, pizzaioli, and pastry artisans.

Part of Molino Paolo Mariani’s Monocultivar line, Delta is made from a single wheat variety selected for identity, consistency, and performance. The producer describes it as a flour that sits between Tipo 1 and Tipo 2 in character — an “Uno e Mezzo” (one and a half) flour — offering the flavor and aroma of a more rustic flour while maintaining balance, lightness, and dough reliability.

Delta has a naturally golden-yellow hue and is designed to bring clean, balanced aromas and an amber crust after baking. Its strength and balanced elasticity make it useful across a wide range of artisan applications, including mixed-leavening bread, naturally leavened bread, baguettes, pizza in pala, Roman-style round pizza, classic medium-fermentation pizza, focaccia, shortcrust pastry, and baked cookies.

Use Delta when you want one premium Italian flour that can move comfortably between bread, pizza, focaccia, and simple pastry while still giving the dough a distinctive grain identity.
