Handcrafted with a passion that has been handed down for generations, these cookies are the result of meticulous and patient craftsmanship. At the heart of each ricciarelli is fresh organic Italian almonds, carefully selected to ensure an intense and unmistakable flavor.

The distinctive feature of these sweets lies in their production method. The almonds are processed using a 60s refiner, a historic machine that operates with a delicacy and precision that modern technology cannot replicate. This slow process enhances the nut's organoleptic qualities, creating a soft and fragrant paste. The dough is then left to rest for a long time, a crucial step in developing its complex aroma.

The result is a light and natural cookie, perfectly balanced by a moderate amount of bitter almond and sweet notes of orange and vanilla. Being flour- and lactose-free, Opera Waiting Ricciarelli are an ideal choice for those seeking a wholesome, easily digestible dessert, suitable for those with specific dietary needs, without compromising on the palate's pleasure.

The roots of this organic Almond Ricciarelli are deep in tradition

Ricciarelli boast a noble and ancient history, rooted in medieval Siena. Legend has it that they were introduced by Ricciardetto della Gherardesca upon his return from the Crusades, inspired by the almond-based sweets he had discovered in the East. Originally reserved for the tables of kings and popes, these rice-grain-shaped biscuits were considered a luxury due to the precious ingredients they contained, such as almonds and sugar.

Having become a symbol of Sienese pastry making, Ricciarelli are traditionally associated with the Christmas holidays, but their deliciousness has made them a pleasure to be enjoyed year-round. The original recipe, made with almond paste, sugar, and egg whites, has been jealously guarded and passed down through time. Opera Waiting's version honors this legacy, using exclusively organic ingredients and artisanal techniques to recreate the authentic flavor that has captivated palates for centuries.
