Chiostro Cantuccioni Fig Biscotti - Crispy Fig Cookies & Italian Food Snacks - A Mother's Day Gift

Discover the allure of Italy's timeless culinary legend with Amaretti Del Chiostro Di Saronno Authentic Italian Amaretti Cookies. According to legend, the story of these beloved cookies begins with the unexpected arrival of the Cardinal of Milan in the charming town of Saronno, Italy. Two young lovers, facing the daunting task of preparing a special treat on short notice, combined sugar and egg whites to create small, round macarons with a subtle bittersweet flavor. This delightful creation was aptly named "Amaretti," meaning "a little bitter" in Italian.

These exquisite macarons have a history as rich and captivating as their taste. Wrapped in elegant, colorful paper, these macarons also carry a whimsical tradition - if you make a wish, roll the paper, and light it, legend has it that your wish will come true if it rises to the ceiling. Indulge in the delectable taste of these gluten-free almond cookies, perfect for snacking or as an accompaniment to your morning coffee. Each cookie is made with high-quality ingredients, ensuring a crisp and soft chocolate texture with every bite.
