The Product's Story
Morbidi alla Nocciola were born from a simple reflection: if the traditional Soft Amaretto of the Monferrato uses almond, why not make it with the noblest ingredient these hills produce?
Piedmont Hazelnut IGP makes up 70%: the remaining 30% is only egg white and sugar. Three ingredients. No butter, no flour. A concentration of hazelnut without equal in Italian pastry-making.
The dough is portioned, worked by hand and baked into the classic amaretto shape: round, with a crackled surface and a heart that stays soft. A cloud of IGP Hazelnut that melts in the mouth with every bite.
