PANFORTE & TORTA DI FRUTTA - COMBO PACK SAVE $8

Panforte Margherita: This dense almond-studded, sugar-dusted cake is embedded with the highest quality candied orange peel, honey, spices, and just enough flour to hold it all together, with a thin wafer bottom. Quite possibly the mother of all fruit cakes; Panforte traces its birth to the beautiful Tuscan city of Siena in the 12 century, and was a staple for the Crusaders. The modern Panforte Margherita was reformulated and named in honor of the first queen of Italy; Margherita di Savoia. It is classically served sliced in thin wedges with a dessert wine or coffee. Modern enthusiasts have parred it with a cheese course as well.

Torta di Frutta: This Italian Fruit Cake "Torta Di Frutta" is bursting with dates, whole California walnuts, sweet glacé cherries and just enough cake batter to hold it all together. Cake and confection merge into one in this dense, rich cake, beautifully presented in a clear hand tied box.
