El Almendro crunchy Alicante turron is a classic Spanish confection made with carefully-selected and toasted almonds, honey, egg white, sugar, and wafer to ensure the best quality, texture, and flavor in every bite. This treat also carries a pleasantly nutty aroma of almonds.
Turron, or torrone, is one of the most renowned classic sweets with a rich history tracing back to the Middle Ages. Turron is believed to be a delicious South European take on the traditional delight of the Moors, and it's named after the Arab turun, a similar treat. However, Spaniards have successfully transformed it into their own dessert - with myriads of regional takes, Turrón de Alicante & Turrón de Jijona are loved worldwide for their sticky-sweet flavors and soft texture. More traditional Spanish desserts can be discovered in our carefully curated collection of turron!
El Almendro, a beloved Spanish brand, was founded in 1883 in Alicante.

Producing various types of traditional Spanish turron sticks, bars, and snacks, El Almendro has become one of the staples of every Spanish household.
