About Ateco

Ateco was founded in 1905 in New York by a group of European immigrants passionate about baking and cooking. Since its inception, the company has been dedicated to manufacturing specialised utensils and tools for bakers and chefs, aiming to meet the growing demand in the American culinary market. The name “Ateco” comes from the English initials of "American Tool Company", reflecting its focus on the quality and functionality of its products.

During the early decades of the 20th century, Ateco established its reputation by offering a wide variety of baking utensils, including cookie cutters, spatulas, and cake pans. With the onset of the Second World War, the company experienced a disruption in production, but managed to adapt and resume its activities, taking advantage of the boom in cooking and baking during the post-war period.

In the following decades, Ateco expanded its product line to include cake decorating tools and utensils specifically designed for professional baking. The brand became a benchmark in the industry, being used by renowned chefs and culinary schools. Over the years, Ateco has remained committed to maintaining high standards of quality and durability across all its products.

In the 21st century, the company continued its evolution by incorporating new technologies into its manufacturing process, ensuring efficiency and precision in the production of kitchen tools. Ateco remains a valued brand for its legacy in baking and cooking, preserving its tradition of innovation and quality in supplying utensils for both professionals and cooking enthusiasts.
