Panforte With Figs And Walnuts |
|
This particular variety of panforte was born from an idea of Giuseppina Bonelli. Given the shortage of raw materials during wartime, she came up with a panforte containing the dried fruit then available in Tuscany, that is dried figs and walnuts; today, this panforte has become one of the best-selling and most appreciated Masoni products, even among those who are not fond of candied fruit, which the product lacks; figs and walnuts are two ingredients once considered poor, however today they enhance each other perfectly creating a unique and successful product! |

Panpepato |
|
Among all the types of panforte, panpepato (pepperbread) is the simplest, and probably also the oldest. It was invented in the monasteries where the monks mixed the various ingredients, including spices, like cinnamon and pimento, which give panpepato its characteristic “strong” taste. |

Ricciarelli di Siena I.G.P. |
|
A curious story says that in the Middle Ages a nun of the Order of Mary’s Servants toasted Siena marzipan too much by mistake and the result were ricciarelli biscuits, toasted and curled by the high temperature, but delicate and tasty; they are prepared grinding the sugar and almonds, then adding egg white and honey; when they have been formed they are dusted with icing sugar and baked in the oven. In 2010, Almond Ricciarelli biscuits became the first Italian confectionery product to be awarded the prestigious European IGP certification, thus becoming Ricciarelli di Siena IGP. |

Cantuccini Toscani I.G.P. |

ORANGE AND CHOCOLATE Cantuccini |
|
To increase the variety and complement the already famous Tuscan Almond Cantuccini biscuits, Orange Cantuccini and Chocolate Cantuccini were created, replacing almonds with other precious ingredients: the former are stuffed with diced candied orange and a delicate orange-flavoured paste, while the latter feature an intense dark colour due to their cocoa content and to the sweet-smelling bits of pure extra dark chocolate. Two delicacies for the palate to be enjoyed with liqueur wine as well, any time you want. |

SAFFRON Cantuccini |

Yet another variety of cantuccino joins in the already wide selection of Masoni’s popular biscuits. Saffron Cantuccini are very simple biscuits prepared with genuine ingredients such as sugar, flour and eggs, with the addition of saffron powder.

CAVALLUCCI INTEGRALI |
|
La differenza con i Cavallucci tradizionali è data dal tipo di farina usata, in questo biscotto viene usata la farina integrale, farina che deriva da chicchi di grano poco raffinati e in cui vengono usati tutti i componenti del seme. La farina integrale ha un colore più scuro e valori nutrizionali più ricchi, quindi più fibre alimentari, più vitamine, più proteine e sali minerali; questo cavalluccio ha un sapore più intenso proprio grazie alla farina integrale contenuta. |

Torrone |
|
The exact etymology of the word “Torrone” (Nougat) is unknown but it probably derives from the Latin verb “torréo” which means, among other things, to brown, to roast, to toast, since the first and essential ingredient is roasted or toasted almond with sugar and egg white. |
