Overview
- Prosecutors asked for one year and eight months for Chiara Ferragni and Fabio Maria Damato, and one year for Cerealitalia president Francesco Cannillo.
- The charges concern 2021–2022 promotions of Balocco pandoro and Dolci Preziosi Easter eggs that were presented as tied to charity in a way prosecutors say misled consumers.
- Financial police reconstructed an undeclared economic advantage of about €2.2 million from the commercial operation.
- A judge admitted the consumer group Casa dei consumatori as a civil party, while other associations reached settlements and did not join the trial.
- The next hearing is reported for early to mid-December, with outlets citing either December 5 or December 19 for defense arguments and possible sentencing.
