El Artesano crunchy Alicante turron is a traditional Spanish nougat with a crunchy, brittle texture. This gluten-free delight is made from 60% crunchy almonds, honey, egg whites, and wafers for an even more crispy bite.
Turron is a beloved Mediterranean confection, typically made with honey, egg whites, and tree nuts. Despite its popularity, the origin history of this confection is shrouded in mystery. Some say it must have been inspired by Arabic turun, a similar treat, while others believe Ancient Greeks created it! One thing is certain - the Spanish are the ones who have mastered the art of turron-making. Turron de Alicante is one of the most famous Spanish varieties, made from toasted nuts, so the oil doesn’t mix up into the concoction. That’s why turrones from Alicante are extremely crunchy and brittle! You can discover all varieties and flavors of turrones in our collection!
