Dating back to the fourteenth century, it is said that these sweet treats were introduced by the knight Ricciardetto Della Gherardesca on his return from the Crusades. Initially presented to guests in his castle, they soon became a Sienese confectionery tradition. The PGI designation, in addition to being the first designation to be awarded to a dessert at European level ever, guarantees strict control of the production process thanks to the regulations imposed by the production regulations of the association for the protection of ricciarelli and panforte [https://www.coripanf.org/]. Ricciarelli are produced according to the original recipe with a mixture based on almonds, egg white, sugar and honey. We make sure that our ingredients are always fresh and come from the best farms. The almonds we use are of the best quality and are selected by hand to avoid any possible impurities. They are of Italian origin, mainly from Apulia, soft, tasty and rich in essential oils that define their aroma. Each individual ricciarello is prepared, shaped by hand and sprinkled with sugar. When the ricciarello has obtained the shape indicated in the production specifications, it is ready to be baked. Once cooled, the desserts are packaged in decorated trays or boxes of various sizes. Ricciarello PGI is a product with an unmistakable sweet taste with the characteristic bitter aftertaste conferred by a skilfully balanced, small quantity of bitter almonds and a soft, non-crumbly texture.
