Description
Prato Biscuits - also commonly known as almond cantucci or cantuccini - are baked every day by our Biscuit Factory since 1958 and are part of the Tuscan confectionery tradition that sees them as a perfect end meal in combination with Vin Santo.
This tin 'Biscuit jar' was conceived and designed by Simone Massoni and Ilaria Falorsi, talented Florentine illustrators, and 'tells' a journey through our laboratory with images. Contains 10,5 OZ Prato Biscuits.
Prepared with only 5 simple ingredients: flour, sugar, free-range eggs, almonds and pine nuts, they do not contain preservatives, animal fats or vegetable fats.
Recommended pairings:
- for end meal in addition to the classic Vin Santo, perfect also with soft grappa
- for a small snack, with coffee or cappuccino
Once opened, store in a cool and dry place in the same tightly closed package. -
History
Since 1858 our biscuits have been baked daily and packed one by one by hand in the classic Blu Mattei bag.
Tin packs are traditionally used for better preservation of biscuits; Biscottificio has been offering them since the last century, not only for the maintenance of its biscuits, but also as reusable containers.
This tin box is the third work of the talented couple of Florentine illustrators Simone Massoni and Ilaria Falorsi for Antonio Mattei biscuit factory.
Clara, as we have called this tin, explores the details of Prato's architecture, and then indulges in the little tales of funny minstrels and the graceful poses of fertile goddesses, between mythology and beauty. -
