Chiostro - Crunchy Amaretti - Tower Tin - 175 g

Traditional Italian crunchy amaretti cookies presented in a collectible tower tin. These flourless confections adhere to the historic Saronno recipe to deliver an authentic regional specialty.

Craft & Origin

Produced in Saronno, Lombardy, the historical center of amaretti production. Chiostro maintains regional integrity by strictly adhering to the original formulation. The recipe requires only sugar, egg whites, and apricot kernels. The signature flavor profile relies on armelline, the kernel found inside apricot pits, which provides necessary bitterness to balance the sugar. The dough is portioned and baked slowly to ensure proper moisture reduction. After cooling, each cookie is wrapped in tissue paper and sealed within a decorative tin.

Flavor & Texture

Prominent sweet almond and bitter apricot kernel notes. Distinctly crunchy.

How to Use

Serve alongside espresso or crumble over sweet cream gelato.
