Product features

Discover the Amaretti of Modena, jewels of Modenese pastry, which shine for their authenticity and unmistakable flavor of homemade traditions. These pastries, born over two centuries ago, keep alive the heritage of an even older confectionery art, distinguished by their unique shape of rough, soft disks. Their taste combines sweetness and bitterness, wrapped in a seductive aroma of almonds and sugar, with a crunchy exterior that hides a tender, fragrant heart. The recipe for amaretti, based on a mixture of sweet and bitter almonds, sugar or honey, and egg white, varies from family to family, keeping the tradition alive with each perfectly golden cookie, a symbol of masterful baking.

Culinary Uses

Amaretti are a dessert rich in nutrients due to the proteins and minerals contained in almonds. They are traditionally consumed at the end of a meal accompanied by a glass of white wine, but also at breakfast or snack time with a cup of tea. Due to their intense flavor, they pair excellently with the delicate taste of whipped cream or can be enhanced by a drop of Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Modena
