Spices

In ancient times, black pepper was as valuable as gold, and cinnamon was considered one of the greatest gifts one could offer a king. In ancient Greece, spices were called “aromatico” — meaning “fragrant, aromatic herbs.”

Spices are natural products with intense aromas and appealing flavors. In confectionery, they are used to enhance both taste and fragrance, giving sweets a unique and memorable character. Among the spices most commonly used in confectionery production are black and allspice pepper, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and cinnamon.

Each spice carries its own kind of magic — transforming confections into true works of art, enriching them with depth, warmth, and aroma.

One particularly refined and unforgettable treat is our “Merenda” biscuit, where the distinctive aromas and flavors of spices intertwine. The bitterness of ginger, the sweetness of cinnamon, the sharpness of pepper, and the piquancy of cloves combine to give this cookie its special charm and elegance. Make your coffee or tea break extraordinary by savoring this aromatic delight.
