The Lladró Golden Pig Tray is where fine Spanish craftsmanship meets playful elegance—and it just so happens to bear a striking resemblance to the Spanish Pig himself. Handmade in Valencia by the world-renowned Lladró atelier, this porcelain tray is crowned by a gleaming 24-karat gold pig: a symbol of abundance, celebration, and tongue-in-cheek luxury.

More than just décor, it’s a design piece that pays homage to Spain’s culinary heritage—making it the perfect companion to the finest jamón. And fittingly, this exclusive piece is available only through Spanish Pig, the sole Canadian stockist of both the tray and Extrem—one of the most prestigious ham producers in all of Spain (if not the best). This makes the Golden Pig Tray not just a statement of style, but a collector’s item with real gastronomic pedigree.

Whether you use it to present charcutería, to serve guests, or simply to admire, the minimalist matte tray contrasts beautifully with the reflective gold pig perched atop it—bold yet refined, classic yet cheeky. It's equally at home on a dining table, bar cart, or display shelf.

This is luxury with personality: a celebration of Spanish food, craftsmanship, and flair—brought to Canada with exclusivity and passion by Spanish Pig. Pair it with a plate of Extrem Jamón Ibérico de Bellota and you have not just a snack, but a centrepiece.

Limited availability. For those who appreciate the finer (and more fabulous) things in life.

It’s a coffee that lingers, offering a satisfying weight on the palate while retaining balance and refinement.

The flavour profile leans heavily into chocolate tones, layered with subtle sweetness that comes alive when combined with milk.

The creaminess of the milk enhances the natural cocoa and nutty notes of the beans, creating a harmonious blend that is both comforting and indulgent.

Hints of roasted grain and toasted almond add depth, while a gentle tea-like quality rounds out the cup, preventing it from becoming overly heavy. It manages to achieve that elusive balance between being bold and approachable, making it a versatile choice for different brewing styles.

De Mello have taken care to ensure that Nom Nom is not just another dark roast. Instead, it captures the richness people crave from a deeper roast while preserving nuance and complexity.

Rubia Gallega Sirloin Steaks – Legendary Flavour, Spanish Excellence

Please note these steaks are frozen. 

Rubia Gallega sirloin steaks are a cut above—literally. Raised in the green, rain-swept pastures of Galicia in northwest Spain, Rubia Gallega cattle (the “Galician Blonde”) are an ancient breed celebrated for their exceptional flavour and natural marbling. These cattle are reared slowly and live up to 8 years or more, allowing the meat to develop a richness and complexity unmatched by conventional beef.

The sirloin cut is juicy and full-flavoured, with the perfect balance of tenderness and savoury depth. When seared simply, it delivers a mouthwatering experience: bold, buttery, and infused with the unique character of its Atlantic terroir.

Simple Spanish Steak Plate
A fuss-free way to let the beef shine:

Ingredients:

• 1 Rubia Gallega sirloin steak

• Olive oil

• Sea salt flakes

• Piquillo peppers

• Marinated olives

• Thin-cut chorizo

• Rustic bread or crackers

Method:
Let the steak come to room temperature. Heat a cast-iron pan until very hot. Rub the steak with olive oil and sear for 2–3 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Rest for 5 minutes, then slice thinly against the grain. Serve with warmed piquillo peppers, a handful of marinated olives, and slices of chorizo. Pair with rustic crackers or crusty bread.

Wine Pairing:
For a perfect match, pour a glass of bold Spanish red—try a Tempranillo from Ribera del Duero, a rich Garnacha from Aragón, or a structured Montsant. These wines complement the beef’s umami depth and balance its buttery richness.

Available in limited quantities. This is steak the Spanish way—elegant, full of soul, and utterly unforgettable.

The Sweet and Salty Canadian Dark Chocolate Bar is a rich, handcrafted indulgence that perfectly balances bold cocoa flavor with the comforting contrast of sweetness and salt. Made using a “bean to bar” process, this chocolate is crafted from ethically sourced, high-quality cacao beans that are roasted, ground, and refined in small batches by Canadian artisans.

From the producers

"This aromatic chocolate was made by soaking Kokoa Kamili cacao nibs in a Bulleit bourbon for 1 week. We then carefully dry the nibs before we begin grinding. We paired Kokoa Kamili nibs with Bulleit Bourbon because of their complimentary citrus notes. The Kokoa Kamili fermentary, located in the Kilimanjaro valley, purchases wet cacao beans from almost 3000 smallholder farmers, most of whom farm between 0.5-2 acres of cocoa. Prior to the founding of Kokoa Kamili the only cacao companies in the country were focused on buying large volumes of commodity cocoa for cheap, cheap, cheap. The result: Tanzania had one of the lowest GDP per capita rates in the world for rural cacao farmers."

La Curiosa’s Large Mussels (6/8 per can) are a premium conserva that showcase the bold flavor and craftsmanship of Galicia’s seafood traditions. These are not your average tinned mussels—each one is plump, meaty, and meticulously hand-packed to preserve its delicate texture and natural richness. Harvested from the pristine waters of the Rías Gallegas, these mussels are sustainably farmed and carefully selected for size and quality before being prepared in a classic escabeche sauce.

The escabeche—a bright, tangy marinade of olive oil, vinegar, paprika, and spices—perfectly complements the mussels’ briny sweetness, adding layers of warmth and depth without overpowering their natural character. The larger size of the 6/8 variety means each bite is satisfyingly substantial, with a velvety mouthfeel and a lingering, savory finish.

They only use mussels of the species (Mytilus galloprovincialis). These are cultivated on rafts, floating platforms from which ropes hang submerged in the water to which the mussels adhere.

Our estuaries are the world's main source of this mollusk, where they have the best food and grow to a larger size.

For this specific format, we use large specimens taken from the best-located rafts in our estuaries, cleaned and canned by hand one by one.

Once selected, fried in olive oil and lovingly hand-packed, one by one, they are covered with our marinade made with natural ingredients such as natural paprika, black pepper, cloves and bay leaves.

The sardines remain the focus, tender and rich with a clean, oceanic depth, while the red pepper adds a soft sweetness and a subtle smokiness that lingers lightly on the palate. The organic olive oil ties everything together, offering a smooth, rounded texture with delicate fruity notes. It is a combination that feels both comforting and quietly sophisticated, with just enough complexity to keep each bite interesting.

For serving, this tin lends itself to slightly more expressive plating. Lay the sardines over grilled sourdough or a warm baguette, spooning over some of the pepper-infused oil for extra flavour. For a simple yet elegant dish, pair with roasted piquillo peppers, a few slices of garlic, and a drizzle of good olive oil.

They also work beautifully as part of a tapas selection alongside charcutería, olives, and cheese. For something more substantial, add them to a salad with roasted vegetables or fold gently into warm rice or pasta, allowing the sweetness of the pepper and richness of the oil to coat every bite.
