Torroni (Nougats)
Nougat it’s a classic sweet in many Italian regions, where Capricci travels to discover the best ones, made with PDO hazelnuts (Piedmont) or PDO Bronte Pistachio and Almond (Sicily). In Campania the torrone is filled with pralines or just glazed with dark chocolate, while Sardinia is where the hazelnut, walnut and chocolate nougat comes from. Finally, from Campania come the artisanal single-serving chocolate covered nougat candies.
One eye-catching product deserves a particular attention: "Copete” are thin wafers with piedmont hazelnuts and acacia honey, packed in a transparent glass jar.
