In 1858 Antonio Mattei started producing biscotti and Italian confections in his bakery in the heart of Prato, Tuscany. He was the first to develop the recipe for Cantucci, the traditional almond biscotti we know and love. In 1904 the Pandolfini family inherited the bakery (and the award-winning secret recipe) and four generations later they continue to uphold the tradition. Fresh baked daily with simple ingredients, the dough is hand-shaped into loaves, and after baking sliced while still hot from the oven, giving the biscotti their distinctive appearance. Crunchy, light, and not too sweet, the perfect nibble to accompany your favorite hot beverage, or as a simple-yet-satisfying snack. Serve alongside panna cotta or gelato. Talented Florentine illustrators Simone Massoni and Ilaria Falorsi designed this special edition biscotti gift tin to celebrate the city of Prato in the colors of the Italian flag. Holds a generous 500 grams of biscotti. Makes a thoughtful gift for anyone who enjoys a sweet treat.
