Biscuits and cakes
The Tuscan New confectioner's shop produce
genuine buiscuits and cakes. Some example:
Cantucci These hard biscuits, rich in sugar and eggs, with
their tasty toasted almonds make the perfect union with any dessert wine and
form a veritable marriage of love with Tuscan Vin Santo .
Ricciarelli: Whether called marzapanetti or morselletti, history
records that these Sienese biscuits have always been appreciated, though not
by the name ricciarelli which is a only recent invention.
Panforte - In two different recipes, black (cocoa) and white,
these wonderful cakes have been appreciated since the 18th century.
