Cantucci IGP

Description

Cantuccini Toscani are Siena’s most famous traditional dry almond cookies, celebrated for their characteristic double baking.

Here are the essentials:

• Shape and Consistency: They appear as crisp diagonal slices made by hot cutting a freshly baked loaf of dough.

• Key Ingredients: The dough is simple and noble, consisting of flour, eggs, sugar, butter, honey and whole, unpeeled almonds (at least 20 percent).

• Taste Profile: They have a sweet and fragrant flavor dominated by the aroma of toasted almond and a delicate note of butter.

• The Pairing: Traditionally they are enjoyed at the end of a meal, soaked in Vin Santo, which softens the texture and enhances the aromas.

They are a PGI-certified product, which guarantees the use of the authentic recipe and the unbreakable link with the Tuscan territory.
