Shortcrust cookies are a significant part of European pastry-making tradition. They were first invented in Venice with the oldest recipe discovered in the 18th century. The name shortcrust comes from cookies being crumbly and coming apart into small irregular particles. Pastries in their earliest forms were originally made by the Egyptians and throughout the centuries, they were eventually brought to Europe in the medieval period. This is the time when Italians started creating their own traditional cookie varieties such as Baci di Dama, Biscotti (also known as Cantuccini), Amaretti, and so much more, all of which can be found in our Italian cookies section along with some gluten-free cookies!

Matilde Vicenzi is an artisanal family-owned bakery brand that started off as a small pastry shop, also known as pasticcerie, in 1905 in San Giovanni Lupatoto, Verona, Italy. The founder of Matilde Vicenzi, Matilde Vicenzi herself always loved creating pastries at home, and with the support from friends and family, she began her own pastry shop, which quickly became popular throughout the region. With over 115 years of experience, the Vicenzi brand still follows the philosophy of simplicity and quality by using fresh eggs and high-quality Italian wheat. Many Italian artisanal brands and Italy’s favorite products can be found in our online Italian grocery store!
