Pistachio Torronfetta 1,7 oz

D. Barbero Nougat Factory

• Description

  Davide Barbero Torronfette ® was created towards the end of the 1950s. Initially they represented the processing waste obtained by cutting the nougat sticks.
  The demand for this subtle and innovative product was so high that it was transformed from a simple scrap into a flagship product of the company.
  Torronfetta ® is a very thin and single slice of nougat that can be enjoyed in a moment of relaxation accompanied by a good Moscato.
  
  The Barbero Torrone is a unique product. It is made with the ancient recipe of Asti nougat. In fact, the ancient craftsmanship has been totally maintained, which involves a long cooking in steam boilers for about 7 hours. To do this, we continue to use egg white which gives the product great friability and does not alter the taste of the nougat. Our nougat includes in its recipe a very high percentage of Piedmont hazelnuts I.G.P. (51%) and wildflower honey selected directly by us. All the hazelnuts are selected by hand and the nougat after cooking is extracted with wooden "oars" and crushed by hand inside special beech molds. Wood is still used as it is a thermal insulator and allows us to let the nougat rest inside the molds for the right time. The product is then left to cool until the next day on marble tables and is collected to be packaged in an artisanal way.
  
  GLUTEN FREE. The product doesn’t contain GMO.
