CHOCOLATE PANFORTE - ANCIENT SIENESE DESSERTS

Known and appreciated since the Middle Ages (13th century), when pilgrims and spice merchants passed through the Via Francigena, Panforte is the quintessential Sienese dessert. It is the result of the transformation and baking of a dough based on quality raw materials: flour, candied fruit, almonds, sugar, honey, and spices. The ingredients are always fresh and come from the best farms. The PGI designation guarantees strict control of the production process combined with the use of premium raw materials. The almonds are of the best quality, of Italian origin, mainly from Puglia, selected by hand. They are soft, flavourful, and rich in essential oils that characterise their aroma. The fruit is processed using traditional techniques, to achieve an optimal level of softness and sweetness.

The 100g, 250g, and 450g formats are hand-packed according to the Sienese confectionery tradition. 

Panforte al Cioccolato is one of the most popular reinterpretations of classic Panforte. With 54% dark chocolate, this variant has a full-bodied flavour while still retaining all the aromas of traditional panforte.

La Fabbrica del Panforte 

La Fabbrica del Panforte is located a few kilometres from Siena. It is like a small but vigorous plant, with its roots in the land and culture of the city. The result is of great quality: artisanal baked goods, cared for down to the smallest detail.

For its creations, Fabbrica del Panforte draws inspiration from the past, from the original recipes of the Sienese confectionery tradition, inherited from the Masters of Panforte.
