The La Fabbrica Panforte Margherita is a modern interpretation of the traditional Sienese fruitcake, created by the pastry chefs of the time to honour Queen Margherita on a visit to Siena. Soft and sweet, these Panforte are made from flour, candied fruit, almonds, sugar, honey and spices according to the rigorous production process controls required for the PGI designation, and each is hand-wrapped according to the Sienese confectionery tradition. Because they’re so rich, a small slice is all that’s needed for the perfect side to a cup of coffee or a glass of wine.
Located a few kilometres from Siena, La Fabbrica Del Panforte is a small company specializing in artisanal baked goods with deep roots in the land and culture. Drawing on the original recipes of the Sienese confectionery tradition that have been passed down from master bakers, La Fabbrica views its products as a representation of the character of the people of Siena: simple, straightforward, original and natural. The delicious La Fabbrica Panforte Margherita is the epitome of that character.
