The unavoidable

You don't know Medieval Gourmets? So, how about you start introducing your customers to our 3 best of? A great way to start selling our biscuits, based on historical recipes from the Middle Ages. - 14 Fairy fingers, 15th century recipe The fairy biscuit: one of the first shortcrust pastry with almonds and orange blossom. In the past, it was customary to coax the fairies, who were sometimes ogresses and devoured the children, to offer them these delicious soft and melting biscuits with the delicate scent of orange blossom. They were also said to encourage fairies to cast pretty spells! - 14 hazelnut macaroons, 14th century recipe One of the very first macarons whose base is cane sugar and roasted hazelnuts. Fondant cakes with a pronounced taste of hazelnuts. Macaroons were created in Arab countries when Europeans began to sail away from their lands. In the Middle Ages the “macaron” designated two different products, a biscuit but also a soup. It is also called “The navel of the monk”. In 791, in an Italian monastery, a monk fell asleep on the dough he was making and gave it this round shape. - 14 rose marzipan, 13th century recipe This marzipan is without egg white and cooked. Small vegan cookies A biscuit with almonds and a subtle taste of rose water. The Marzapane or even Marchepain, would have appeared in the 8th century in the East, where it was the confectionery of the harem then introduced in Europe in the 13th century by the Persians. The Venetian Crusaders would have pierced the secret. In Italy, one of the legends says that the daughter of a baker, very loving and dreamy, having to help her father, made a mistake in the dosage of almonds. We manufacture your order on demand!
