All the richness of Siena’s recipe in this too delicious products: one very soft and delicate, the second with the combination of sweet and spicy….
Toscana it’s one of the most beautiful and important region of Italy because of its artistic, historic, economic and cultural estate. Tuscany territory it’s mostly hill, but it’s caracterised also by the several plains and mountains. Toscana it’s a little center with middle age buildings, churches, frescos that testify its past in a place where years ago Florence and Siena’s traditions met each other. The agriculture is based on oliveyards and vineyards. But the caratteristics products are mushrooms, chestnuts and truffles. Siena it’s a tuscan city really particular, famous for its tradition of “Palio” but also for its delicatessen as Panforte, Panpepato, Ricciarelli…..
PANFORTE NERO: The name “Panforte nero”, or black panforte, adopted in the late 1800’s, was just another way of calling Panpepato (peppered panforte), so as to distinguish it from the newly concocted Panforte Margherita, also called white panforte owing to the candid layer of icing sugar sprinkled on it. Only later did Panforte nero actually differentiate itself from Panpepato, acquiring its own personality thanks to the use of a milder, more delicate mix of spices in its recipe. One can surely state that Panforte nero results from the evolution of Panpepato, thus becoming a product with a sharp but not excessively strong taste.
PANFORTE CIOCCOLATO: This is the last panforte to be brought into the family of this celebrated candied-fruit sweet. It has remained unaltered in its disclike shape, method of preparation and aromtic spices. The Chocolate panforte “Speziali” does not contain any added fats nor any additives and colorings.
PANFORTE MARGHERITA: Panforte basic ingredients are fresh almonds, candied-fruits, spices and honey. The most popular panforte is Panforte Margherita, named after the wife of Italian King Umberto I, which was prepared for the fi rst time in 1879, for the occasion of Queen Margherita’s visit to Siena to assist in the Palio.
