Italian Amaretti Cookies — Soft Almond, La Fabbrica del Panforte Siena
These soft Italian Amaretti cookies are made by La Fabbrica del Panforte in Siena following the traditional Tuscan confectionery craft: selected almonds, a light dough that melts on the tongue, no artificial additives. Nothing like the amaretti found in supermarkets — the texture says it all: firm outside, extraordinarily soft inside, with the natural fragrance of real almond.
🌟 What makes these amaretti different
La Fabbrica del Panforte in Siena works to the same artisan standards that produce Panforte di Siena and Ricciarelli IGP — two of Italy's most protected and recognised confectionery traditions. The amaretti that come out of this bakery have a completely different character from mass-produced biscuits: no artificial flavouring, no preservatives, just almonds, egg white and sugar in the right proportions.

❓ FAQ
What are Italian amaretti cookies? Amaretti are traditional Italian almond biscuits, originally from Tuscany and Piedmont. The soft variety (amaretti morbidi) have a chewy, melt-in-the-mouth texture, distinct from the crunchy version. These come from La Fabbrica del Panforte in Siena — one of Italy's oldest confectionery traditions.
Are they gluten-free? The traditional amaretti recipe contains no wheat flour — they are naturally gluten-free. Always check the label for official certification confirmation.
How should I store them after delivery? In a cool, dry place away from light. Not in the fridge. Once opened, seal the packaging well and consume within 5–7 days to keep the soft texture.
Are they suitable as a gift? Yes — they are a classic Italian food gift, especially paired with Vin Santo or Pecorino in a gift hamper. La Fabbrica del Panforte is one of the historic names of Sienese confectionery.
What is the difference between amaretti and Ricciarelli? Both come from the Sienese tradition and the same bakery. Ricciarelli IGP are flat and oval with icing sugar on top. Soft amaretti are rounder with a more compact, buttery structure. Different products, almond in common.
