Nothing sums up Italian sweets quite like a classic amaretti cookie. These stunning amber biscuits are all the crunch and softness that perfectly captures the ideal simple recipe and mouth-watering flavour. Just three natural ingredients are all it takes along with some expert bakers from Sardinia. These adorable packs of classic Amaretti’s are a gorgeous gift or treat for everyone.

With a bittersweet aroma, crispy outer layer and a soft heart these typical Italian sweets are one of the most popular baked goods from Italy. There are many tales related to their origin, but the romantic version says two lovers who owned a bakery wanted to mark the occasion that a Milanese Cardinal came to visit the local church in the 18th century. However, some believe the Amaretti was created in Venice in the 17th Century by a pastry chef at the court of Savoy.

Over the last few hundred years these iconic sweets have become a symbol of Italy’s grip on world dominating recipes. If you haven’t tried one yet, now’s the time to get addicted.

Perfect for gifting and in compostable plastic bags.
