Slowfood Organic Crunchy Sesame

Organic Sesame Sweet Cream with Praline Grains

A crunchy symphony that explodes with Sicilian flavors with every bite

Slowfood Organic Crunchy Sesamosa Gambuzza

Slowfood Organic Sesamosa Crunchy by Gambuzza represents the pinnacle of Sicilian artisanal innovation, a delicious evolution that enriches the creaminess of precious Ispica sesame seeds with the irresistible flavor of praline almond flakes. This Slow Food Presidium celebrates the island's biodiversity, combining three Sicilian organic excellences in a single jar: Ispica sesame seeds (38%), Italian hazelnuts, and sesame-flavored praline almond flakes (9%), created with an exclusive recipe incorporating cocoa, orange zest, and cinnamon.

Each spoonful offers a layered sensory experience: the velvety, buttery base of sesame cream blends with the crunchy explosion of praline crumbs, creating a fascinating textural contrast that surprises the palate. The spicy notes of cinnamon, the citrus aroma of orange zest, and the depth of cocoa intertwine in a complex and refined aromatic bouquet, worthy of the finest Sicilian patisserie.

The artisanal production process respects the slow pace of tradition: the sesame seeds are delicately toasted and stone-ground to preserve their essential oils and sensory properties, while the almonds are individually coated in organic sugar, creating the perfect crunch that makes Sesamosa Crunchy one of a kind. A spread that evokes the most authentic Sicily, that of almond groves in bloom, golden fields of sesame, and the expert hands that transform noble raw materials into masterpieces of flavor.
 
 
 

The roots of Sesamosa Crunchy lie in Sicilian confectionery art.

The tradition of praline coating in Sicily has its roots in the art of Arab master confectioners who, during their domination of the island, brought with them the skillful use of caramelized sugar and oriental spices. In the centuries that followed, Sicilian pastry chefs perfected this technique, creating the famous "mandorle terrete" and "torronati," sweets in which dried fruit was coated in a crunchy layer of sugar flavored with citrus and cinnamon.

Sesame, also introduced by the Arabs, became a key ingredient in traditional Sicilian pastries: from "giuggiulena" to "cubbàita," sweets made with toasted sesame and honey that were prepared during patron saint festivals and important celebrations. In the Ispica plain, this plant found its ideal habitat, giving rise to a local variety so precious that it earned Slow Food Presidium recognition.

Sesamosa Crunchy is born from the encounter between these two souls of Sicilian tradition: the creaminess of ground sesame and the crunchiness of artisanal praline. Gambuzza has reinterpreted this ancient knowledge with a contemporary twist, creating an innovative spread that brings the authentic taste of Baroque Sicily to modern tables, the Sicily of monasteries where nuns prepared refined sweets and the workshops where master confectioners created small edible works of art.
 
 
 

Choosing Organic Crunchy Sesame means taking care of yourself

Organic Sesame Crunchy is a natural powerhouse of nutrition and vitality. Sesame is one of the richest plant sources of bioavailable calcium, essential for bone and dental health, and magnesium, a crucial mineral for the nervous system, muscle function, and cellular energy production. Its lignans, particularly sesamol and sesamin, are powerful antioxidants that protect cells from oxidative stress and support cardiovascular health.

Sicilian almonds provide vitamin E, the most powerful natural fat-soluble antioxidant, which protects cell membranes and combats skin aging, along with prebiotic fibers that nourish the intestinal microbiota and promote digestive regularity. The high protein content (14,3g per 100g) makes this spread an excellent source of essential amino acids for tissue repair and maintaining muscle mass, particularly suitable for athletes and those following a plant-based diet.

Italian hazelnuts round out the nutritional profile with omega-9 monounsaturated fatty acids, folic acid, which is essential for DNA synthesis, and phytosterols that help control cholesterol. Organic cinnamon adds thermogenic and blood sugar-regulating properties, while orange peel provides limonene and flavonoids with anti-inflammatory properties. Each spoonful of Sesamosa Crunchy is a gesture of love for your body, a concentrate of clean energy and functional substances that deeply nourish.
