D I D Y O U K N O W ?

The origin of the cantucci dates back to at least the sixteenth century. The name seems to derive from "cantellus", in Latin "piece or slice of bread", a salted cake that Roman soldiers already consumed during military campaigns. Others derive the word from "canto", corner, small part.
Starting from the second half of the '500, we find these biscotti at the court of the Medici, although it seems they did not yet contain almonds. The Accademia della Crusca at the end of '600 gives the first definition of "cantuccio": "sliced biscotto, of gentle flour, with sugar and egg white".
Pride of Made in Italy already at the time, the Cantucci were brought to the Universal Exhibition in Paris in 1867 with great success. Starting from the '900 the Cantucci with almonds began to be produced throughout the region more and more on a large scale. In 2011 the association of producers was born to obtain the recognition of Protected Geographical Indication, IGP, which arrived in 2016 and includes the entire administrative territory of the Tuscany region.

See you all at the Nelson Italian Festival ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡น
