Amaretti di Mombaruzzo Morbidi

Amaretti di Mombaruzzo are traditional Italian soft almond cookies originating from the Piedmont region. These specific cookies are deeply rooted in the culinary heritage of the village of Mombaruzzo, where the recipe was famously developed in the 18th century by Francesco Moriondo, a pastry chef at the Savoy royal court.

The brand 'Amaretti di Mombaruzzo' often refers to the production by Franco Vicenzi, who has preserved the artisanal methods required to achieve the characteristic soft texture and bittersweet flavor derived from apricot kernels (armelline) and sweet almonds. These products are manufactured exclusively in Italy to maintain their Protected Designation of Origin status and traditional quality.

Currently, the brand is owned and operated by the Vicenzi family (Franco Vicenzi), maintaining its status as a specialized Italian confectionery house. The brand focus remains on traditional Piedmontese sweets, exported globally as a premium delicacy representing Italian craftsmanship in baking.
