FORNO BONOMI Italian Amaretti Cookie Macaroons 7 oz

These oven-baked confections of perfection, apricot almond cookies, or amaretti as the locals call them, or macaroons, as they are also known, prove once again that some old favorites just can’t be improved upon. The unchanging recipe for these typical, traditional favorite cookies from the Veronese mountains, brought to you by FORNO BONOMI, “the Bonomi family oven,” produces the same light crispness, reminiscent of meringue, and with the sweet aroma of almonds, that the Italian grandmothers of past centuries baked to win hearts. These cookies are the quintessential choice for afternoon tea, an extraordinary coffee break, or remarkable dessert.

Dating back to the mid-19th century, the Bonomi family opened its first bakery in the village of Velo, baking bread for the mountain dwellers of Verono. Through the generations, the Bonomi family passion for baking expanded to share the abundance of timeless local traditions of cookies, confections and cakes.
