The sweet side of ketchup
Small in size, generous in sweetness: the Baby Roma tomato gives this ketchup its distinctive character. Grown in Italy, in the most suitable farming areas, and prized for its naturally sweet flavour, this slender little tomato brings a softer, rounder expression of tomato to a familiar table favourite.
Mutti Ketchup Baby Roma combines concentrated tomato with a speciality Passata made from Baby Roma tomatoes, allowing the variety’s delicate sweetness to remain present in every spoonful. The result is smooth and rich, with a rounded tomato flavour that needs less sugar to find its balance.
Bright enough for dipping and generous enough for burgers, sandwiches and grilled dishes, it is a ketchup shaped first and foremost by the personality of the tomato from which it is made.
Made with
Sun-ripened Round Tomatoes, grown in selected areas of Italy that best express the variety’s character and harvested at full maturity, are processed within 24 hours. This preserves their warm red colour and clean, unmistakably tomato-led taste. It is this same depth of flavour that gives Mutti Original Ketchup its distinctive profile.

Behind the scenes
Mutti Ketchup Baby Roma is delicious straight from the bottle. You can also stir it into a burger sauce or dressing, use it as the tomato base for a quick glaze, or brush it over vegetables and meats towards the end of grilling or roasting.
What sets this ketchup apart begins with the choice of Baby Roma tomato, also known as Datterino, which is a small Italian tomato variety with a naturally sweet character. Mutti brings that identity into the finished sauce by adding a speciality Baby Roma Passata.
Its rounded sweetness is a natural match for burgers, fries and roasted potatoes, but there is much more to explore. Try it with grilled chicken, vegetable fritters, toasted sandwiches or charred courgettes and peppers.

Table Sauces
It all starts with the tomato. Mutti Baby Roma Ketchup is made with Datterini, also known as Baby Roma tomatoes, a small, elongated variety prized for its naturally sweet and delicate flavour. This gives the ketchup a softer, rounder taste compared with the more intense and gently spicy character of Mutti Original Ketchup.
Baby Roma, or Datterini, are small, elongated tomatoes known for their naturally sweet flavour and fleshy texture. Their name recalls their date-like shape — datterino comes from the Italian word dattero, meaning date. Their natural sweetness is what gives Mutti Baby Roma Ketchup its distinctive smooth and rounded character.
No. The recipe is designed to let the flavour and natural colour of ripe Datterini tomatoes speak for themselves, without added preservatives or artificial colours.
Mutti selects 100% Italian tomatoes for all its products. Datterini are particularly prized for their sweetness, thin skin and fleshy texture, characteristics that make them one of the most distinctive tomato varieties in the Mutti range.
Choose it when you want ketchup to bring a gentler, more rounded tomato flavour to the dish. The sweetness of Datterini creates a particularly smooth balance between tomato, vinegar and seasoning, making it an interesting alternative for anyone who prefers a less sharp ketchup.
