  Our Prato Almond Biscuits are made with flour, sugar, free-range eggs, almonds and pine nuts. They contain no preservatives, animal fats or vegetable fats.
  
  Our Dark Chocolate Prato Biscuits, as well as our Pistachio & Almond variety, are made using the same traditional dough as our Prato Almond Biscuits—flour, sugar and free-range eggs—but with the addition of fine 60% cocoa dark chocolate drops in place of the almonds and pine nuts.
  
  Vacuum-packed freshly ground coffee from the historic Padovani Brothers Roastery in Prato.
  This blend is created from a careful selection of premium Arabica varieties and one of the finest Indian Robustas, perfectly balanced to produce an intense, harmonious coffee with great character.
  In the cup it develops a rich, compact hazelnut-coloured crema. On the palate it offers a full body and natural sweetness, followed by the elegant aromatic notes of its carefully selected Arabica beans.
  Ideal for both automatic and traditional espresso machines, it is equally perfect when prepared in a classic Moka pot.
  
  Our Toasted Brioche Slices are the result of a long artisan process that requires time, patience and meticulous attention to detail.
  The dough undergoes a double natural leavening, giving the brioche its soft texture and delicate aroma. After baking, it is sliced into deliberately thick pieces and left to rest for a further 24 hours before being toasted. This essential step preserves their structure, preventing them from crumbling while ensuring a perfectly crisp texture.
  The result is an authentic toasted slice that is crisp yet never fragile, created to enhance the pleasure of a simple breakfast and prepared with the same artisan care that has always distinguished the Antonio Mattei Biscuit Factory.
  Golden, fragrant and wonderfully crisp, they are perfect for breakfast or an afternoon treat, simply enjoyed with butter and fruit preserve or served with honey, chocolate spreads or other sweet accompaniments.
  
  Rubini Extra Fruit Preserves are made with a high percentage of carefully selected fruit and simple ingredients, preserving the authentic flavour of the finest raw materials. Gentle artisan preparation and careful cooking enhance the fruit's natural aroma and taste, creating a smooth texture and rich fruit flavour. They are the perfect accompaniment to our Toasted Brioche Slices and are equally delicious with biscuits, cheeses or yoghurt.
  
  We have chosen Deseo Butter Shortbread Biscuits for their artisan quality and perfectly balanced recipe. Made with high-quality butter and carefully selected ingredients, they are distinguished by their delicate flavour and wonderfully crumbly texture. Perfect for breakfast or a sweet break during the day, they are delicious enjoyed on their own or accompanied by a cup of coffee or tea.

• History

  Since 1858, Prato Biscuits have been baked daily and hand-packed one by one, in the classic Blu Mattei bag.
  The Dark Chocolate Biscuits came out of our oven for the first time in 2013, they are also hand-packed one by one, originally in a red bag but since 2019 in the Blu Mattei bag with a Red label.
  
  In the coffee, tobacco and spices shop under the loggias of Piazza del Comune in Prato, the Padovani family has been selling its precious coffee blends since the early 1900s.
  
  The production of toasted Pan Brioche Slices has been documented since the beginning of the Antonio Mattei biscuit factory in 1858.
  They have always been stored loose in special baskets and sold by weight in the historic shop in Prato.
  
  The story of Dispensa Rubini began almost eighty years ago in Portile, just outside Modena, when Gaetano Rubini founded a family farm built on hard work, respect for the land and the quality of its produce. Generation after generation, the Rubini family has preserved and passed on this heritage of knowledge and passion, continuing to oversee every stage of production, from fruit cultivation to processing in their own artisan workshop. A perfect balance of tradition, innovation and love for the local area, reflected in every one of their specialties.
  
  Founded in Prato in 2001 by Francesco Pandolfini, Deseo reinterprets the Tuscan confectionery tradition with a contemporary approach, creating artisan specialties made with carefully selected ingredients and an unwavering commitment to quality.
