Chestnut Flour and Mugello PGI Chestnuts from Marroni La Fenice

The foundation of traditional recipes, such as the famous Tuscan castagnaccio, is chestnut flour, fine, naturally sweet, and obtained by slowly drying the fruits in traditional stone smokehouses called metati. Alongside the flour, our selection includes organic dried chestnuts and jarred varieties in syrup, ideal for rediscovering ancient flavours or experimenting with both sweet and savoury gourmet dishes.

Chestnut Spreads and Chocolate Delights

For moments of pure indulgence, let yourself be won over by the velvety smooth chestnut cream, perfect for spreading or as a pastry filling, and its irresistible version enriched with fine cocoa. Chocolate lovers will find organic chocolate bars made with chestnut flour and artisanal pralines enclosing a soft chestnut core, representing a flawless balance between the intensity of cocoa and the sweetness of the forest fruit.

Biscuits, Cantuccini, and Festive Cakes from Marroni La Fenice

The Tuscan pastry tradition is renewed through the union of chestnut flour and ancient local grains. Taste the rustic shortbreads, biscuits enriched with chocolate chips, or the classic cantuccini, redesigned to offer a crumbly texture and a unique flavour that pairs beautifully with a glass of Vinsanto. The collection also features unique twists on festive classics, such as panforte and artisanal panettone enriched with premium marrons glacés.

Organic Apennine Honey from Marroni La Fenice

To complete this immersive journey into mountain flavours, we offer organic honeys harvested in the pristine woods of the Mugello region. From chestnut honey, dark, intense, and with a characteristically bitter aftertaste, ideal for pairing with aged Tuscan cheeses, to the delicate and classic acacia and wildflower honeys, which stand as a pure expression of the spontaneous Apennine flora.
