Cantucci with Almonds

With Fresh Eggs and Almond Milk

The iconic biscuit of Italian tradition, crunchy and irresistible, perfect for any sweet moment.

Almond Cantucci: Authenticity and Artisanal Flavor.

Our Almond Cantucci are made following the classic recipe, but with an extra touch of attention to the quality of the ingredients.

These dry biscuits, with their characteristic elongated shape, are known for their double baking which gives them an unmistakable crunchiness.

The use of type 1 soft wheat flour, fresh eggs, and almond milk instead of cow's milk (6,5%) enhances the crispiness and flavor, making every bite an authentic artisanal pastry experience. A must-have dessert, a symbol of Italian hospitality and tradition.

The roots of this flavor are deep in tradition…

The origins of cantucci, or Prato biscuits, date back to the 16th century, but the modern recipe, which pairs them with Vin Santo, was consolidated in the 19th century.

This biscuit was born from the need to create a dessert that would keep for a long time, thanks to its dry consistency and repeated baking (bis-cotto means baked twice).

Our Cantucci honor this history, using a dough enriched with whole cane sugar and whole, unpeeled almonds, keeping alive the wisdom of the peasant tradition that favored simple ingredients and natural preservation techniques.

Choosing Almond Cantucci means taking care of your well-being.

When selecting baked goods, it's essential to prioritize the quality of the raw materials. Using type 1 flour guarantees a higher fiber and nutrient content than refined flours.

The use of almond milk and the presence of whole almonds provide good fats, vegetable proteins and minerals.

Without added preservatives or colorings, these Cantucci are a delicious and artisanal treat, a quality alternative for those seeking a genuine dessert made with the care of a small farm.
