The family baking tradition behind this classic Tuscan biscuit was started by Giovannino Marini three generations ago in Siena Province. Today, Giovannino’s grandsons, Luca and Marco Marini, prepare the almond dough in their bakery, by freshly grinding current harvest nuts, using the classic, slightly bitter prunus amara almond variety, as the tradition of the true amaretto biscuit demands. (Industrial producers buy their almond base ready-made, substituting the true bitter almond with far cheaper apricot kernels.)
This is a gluten free biscuit wih no added preservatives, made using only free range eggs, local wildflower honey and a topping of almond flakes.
Ingredients: Ground almonds (minimum 43%), sugar, wildflower honey, fresh egg white (from outdoor free range eggs), sliced almonds (minimum 7%), raising agent: ammonium bicarbonate.
