Chiostro di Saronno Crunchy Amaretti Cookies are traditional Italian treats made with an original Lombardian recipe consisting of ground apricot kernels, sugar, and egg whites. Each cookie is baked to perfection to provide a satisfyingly crisp texture and balanced flavor, all brought to you in a beautiful red window box packaging with each cookie wrapped individually.
Amaretti cookies are one of Italy’s favorite traditional treats that were supposedly invented during the late Renaissance period, in the mid 17th century. Named after the Italian “amaro,” meaning bitter in reference to the bitter almonds or apricot kernels they contain, amaretti cookies can vary from soft to crispy. These traditional and naturally gluten-free cookies were originally born in Saronno, a town of Lombardy. Chiostro di Saronno’s authentic Italian amaretti, as well as a wide variety of other Italian classics, including Baci di Dama, ladyfingers, Cantuccini, and more, can be found in our wide selection of Italian cookies!
