I first discovered this glue tin years ago in a collage workshop. Made in northern Italy since 1927, Coccoina is the glue that half of Europe grew up with — a potato starch paste in an aluminum tin with an integrated brush, smelling unmistakably of marzipan. Non-toxic, solvent-free, and safe for little hands, it dries cleanly on paper, cardboard, and photographs without warping or bubbling. The packaging has barely changed in a century, which tells you everything you need to know.
