Torta di Cecco Sapori

Torta di Cecco - a classic Christmas treat from Siena in Tuscany which is similar to Panforte.

The unique flavour of the recipe is obtained by combining almonds and hazelnuts with candied oranges and apricots, in a soft dough still kneaded by hand today. Then, it is completely covered in dark chocolate (72% cocoa), creating a unique balance of flavours that brings out both the taste of the chocolate and the notes of the fruit.

Torta di Cecco was first made in the Middle Ages and the recipe was adapted later, with the discovery of chocolate. The name Cecco is short for Francesco.
