'Francesco' gift box

Hatbox with assortment of products Biscottificio Mattei, Deseo and Le Mortelle jam

• Description

  The hatbox 'Francesco' offers a choice of biscuits from the Antonio Mattei biscuit factory combined with products from carefully selected companies.
  Contains a 8.8 oz pack of Prato Biscuits, a 8.8 oz Dark Chocolate Biscuits and a 8.8 oz Piedmont IGP Hazelnut Biscuits, a box of shortcrust pastry with pine nuts, raisins and chilli pepper (5.5 oz) and a box of Oil Biscuits with Cocoa and Pistachio (7 oz) by Deseo, and a jar of Le Mortelle Blueberry Jam (8.8 oz).
  
  Prato Biscuits are prepared with 5 simple ingredients: flour, sugar, free-range eggs, almonds and pine nuts, they do not contain preservatives, animal fats or vegetable fats.
  The dark chocolate biscuits and those with Piedmont IGP hazelnuts are made with the same dough of the Prato biscuits (flour, sugar, free-range eggs), and instead of almonds and pine nuts are added fine dark chocolate chips (85% cocoa), or hazelnuts.
  
  The triple fragrance of the particular shortbread biscuits with pine nuts, raisins and chilli pepper is well matched to a hot drink, like a classic Earl Gray tea that releases even more the spicy note.
  
  Oil Biscuits with Cocoa and Pistachio are rustic and crunchy. The base of the dough is obtained with the use of extra virgin olive oil, flour and sugar. Ideal with English Breakfast tea; also excellent with a good aged brandy.
  
  Le Mortelle blueberry jam is prepared exclusively with organic fruit from the farm (75.5%), organic lemon juice (1.5%) and sweetened with organic cane sugar (23%).

• History

  Since 1858 the Prato Biscuits have been baked daily and hand-packed one by one, in the classic Blu Mattei bag.
  
  The Dark Chocolate Biscuits come out of our oven for the first time in 2013, these are also hand-packed one by one, originally in the red bag, and from 2019 in the Blu Mattei bag with Red label.
  
  In 2019 a new biscuit was born, even more delicious! It is the variant with the prestigious Piedmont IGP Hazelnuts: a trilobate hazelnut, with a particular weight and toasting flavor, carefully selected for the traditional dough of our Biscuits.
  
  The first of Deseo's goals is to create balanced and tasty biscuits by focusing on the excellence of the ingredients, natural flavors, artisanal processing methods and traditional cooking systems.
  Every year new combinations of taste are produced, new packaging, always attentive to the needs of a loyal clientele already widespread in Italy and worldwide.
  
  Le Mortelle farm is located in the heart of the lower Maremma, in the province of Grosseto, about 9 km. from Castiglione della Pescaia extending for 270 hectares of which 160 are planted with vineyards.
  Then there are 15 hectares of orchards (peaches, plums, apricots, pears and blueberries) organically grown, as well as two artificial lakes, the largest of which has a body of water of about 6 hectares. All around, low hills covered with olive groves and woods.
