The Product's Story
Almonds, sugar and egg white are the only three elements. The dough is portioned, worked by hand and baked, taking on the classic amaretto shape.
The secret of Amaretti d'Acqui lies not only in excellent Italian raw ingredients, but above all in skilful workmanship and balanced dosing that turn this little pastry into a light cloud of almond.
Amaretti d'Acqui are one of the oldest and most iconic preparations of Piedmontese pastry-making. Our soft recipe — not to be confused with the crunchy version — carries centuries of Monferrato confectionery tradition.
Three ingredients, no compromises: Sicilian almond flour from Avola, sugar, fresh egg white. Each amaretto is shaped by hand and carefully baked to achieve that unique texture: a light outer crust giving way to a soft, moist heart — fragrant and lingering.
Perfect with coffee, as an elegant dessert, or as a gourmet gift of great value.
