Soft almond amaretti

These are the soft amaretti that once made Amaretti Virginia famous: made from sugar, apricot kernels, almonds, egg white and honey. Beneath their carefully baked, delicate crust lies a deliciously soft center. The soft almond amaretti are ideal for a sweet break at any time of day, as an accompaniment to an espresso or as a dessert at the end of a meal, paired with a good coffee or liqueur wine.

Soft amaretti have been produced in Sassello in Liguria since 1860. And the place where the little delicacies were made quickly established itself as a local meeting place - so much so that the square where it was located was referred to as "Piazza degli Amaretti Virginia" on contemporary postcards. Amaretti Virginia soon earned international fame in the form of numerous awards. This in turn attracted imitators, which is why the founder had the Virginia brand placed under the protection of the laws of the Kingdom of Italy as early as 1897. Anyone who tastes the delicious Amaretti Virginia today immediately understands their popularity, because the valuable experience of over 150 years, combined with modern confectioner's creativity and the use of selected ingredients, is both a quality claim and a promise for Amaretti Virginia. This also means that Amaretti Virginia's products and recipes have not had to adapt to technology, but that the machines have been specially designed for each product. In addition to the famous soft Amaretti, other confectionery specialties are now also produced.
