This Barilla pasta pack has been created in celebration of American alpine skier Mikaela Shiffrin's 87th World Cup victory to help provide fans alike with a way to commemorate the achievement. The pasta features the brand's recognizable blue box that's filled with pasta shaped like sevens and eights to pay homage to the namesake World Cup victory. A total of 87 pasta packs have been created with the first one being presented to Shiffrin herself, packs two to 10 being auctioned and the remaining examples sold at a fixed price.
Shiffrin spoke on the Barilla pasta pack and continued partnership saying, "My partnership with Barilla means the world to me. Barilla was with me since the beginning and has shared every single one of my victories. Words can’t express just how proud I am to have been, and continue to be, part of the Barilla family for the last 12 years—my longest partnership to date!”
