Remove dried flour and pasta residue after use.
Wipe food-contact surfaces clean as needed and allow them to dry completely before folding the rack.
Fold the arms around the central column for compact storage.
Store the transfer wand inside the center column when not in use.
Keep the rack dry during storage.

Marcato Tacapasta Pasta Drying Rack
Foldable 16-arm pasta drying rack with capacity for up to 2 kg of fresh pasta and a removable transfer wand
The Marcato Tacapasta Pasta Drying Rack gives freshly cut pasta enough room to dry without covering the countertop in trays or towels. Its 16 rotating arms hold up to 2 kg of fresh pasta, then fold back around the central column for compact storage when the work is finished.
Why Order from Design & Grace
Authorized Marcato retailer: Design & Grace is an authorized Marcato retailer, so you receive genuine Marcato products backed by the full manufacturer warranty.
Ships from Texas: Your Marcato pasta tool is carefully packed and shipped from our Texas facility.
More drying space with less countertop clutter: Sixteen arms spread long pasta out for more even drying while the folding design takes up very little room between batches.
Dry Long Pasta Without Crowding It
Tacapasta opens into a freestanding rack with 16 arms arranged around a central column. The layout gives strands of spaghetti, fettuccine, tagliolini, and other long pasta space to hang separately rather than piling together and sticking.
A removable wand stores inside the center column. Use it to lift freshly cut pasta directly from the machine and transfer the strands onto the drying arms with less handling.
Signature Features
16 drying arms: Provides generous hanging space for long fresh pasta while keeping individual strands separated.
Up to 2 kg capacity: The rack can support as much as 2 kg of fresh pasta across its 16 arms.
Removable transfer wand: A wand stored inside the central column helps lift pasta from the machine and transfer it directly to the rack.
Rotating arms: The arms pivot around the central column, making it easy to spread them out for drying and fold them back for storage.
Compact when closed: Folded dimensions are 470 x 250 x 63 mm, so the rack stores much more easily than its open capacity suggests.
BPA-free food-contact parts: Marcato specifies that the drying rods and transfer wand are BPA free.
Four color options: Tacapasta is available in Red, Black, Blue, and Transparent.
Beginner friendly: The freestanding design requires no mounting or complicated setup before use.
Made in Italy: Marcato manufactures its products in Italy with a focus on durable construction and food-contact safety.
From Our Founder
"A drying rack becomes much more useful when it is easy to store. Tacapasta gives you enough room for a serious batch of fresh pasta, then folds back into a slim footprint instead of becoming permanent countertop equipment."
Tony Boulton, Founder, Design & Grace
