Dragées raisins, bitter almonds and milk chocolate

Here, in their Florentine workshop, for thirty years now Claudio and his sister Claudia have carried forward with great passion and professionalism creations where chocolate is the star. It is indeed in Florence that the Pistocchi family's pastry art was born, with their chocolate cakes being true specialities, along with cremini and dragées. The little three-chocolate and fruit cakes. But as with all their cakes, they continue to be entirely handmade. Over the years, product quality has, if anything, grown even further. Because today the market offers 87 types of dark chocolate to choose from according to one's needs. Today, the workshop's creations are not just chocolate but also a gluten free line of biscuits. The two siblings craft, with hand-picked ingredients, true taste experiences every day: these Dragées are wonderful sweets with raisins, bitter almond, sea salt and finest milk chocolate, small delights for great pleasures. The Dragées are prepared in four delicious variants: raisins, bitter almonds, milk chocolate and a pinch of sea salt, Yrgalem Coffee Dragées, Hazelnut Dragées, Pistachio Dragées all waiting to be discovered! Thanks to their dedication, great passion and professionalism, their Dragées and their Cakes are recognised and award-winning internationally. Also for 2017, the Florentine chocolate workshop TortaPistocchi, at the World finals of the International Chocolate Awards in London, was honoured with three major prizes: gold for the raisin dragées with milk chocolate, bitter almond and sea salt, and a silver medal for the pistachio dragées, white chocolate, orange powder and sea salt, already world gold winner in 2016.
