Matilde Vicenzi Amaretti Cookies - Gourmet Italian Crispy Almond Cookies - Bite-Sized Traditional Coffee & Tea Biscuits Made in Italy - 6.17 oz (175g), 2 Pk

These biscuits were delicious!

This brand has freshness. They are crunchy and delicious as they should be.

Great with espresso, these delicious cookies are very low calorie, and kept in a plastic bag they stay fresh tasting seemingly forever.

After having ordered several times here from Amazon both the Cantuccini of Sapori Siena and of L'Oro Del Sud (both delicious) I decided to try the Cantuccini of Matilde Vicenzi, and I have been disappointed. They are quite hard and quite tasteless, and with minimal pieces of almonds. Not recommended.

I'd had a different brand of these cookies in the past. I like that the cookies, in general, are a bit "airy" (i.e., a lot of air pockets... like a sponge, only crunchy), but these cookies in particular are WAY too airy. The air pockets are so large in most of them, that there is barely any cookie at all. Take a bite of one of these "50 cent piece" sized cookies and there is nothing there. It's just an outer crust with nothing inside. Yes, they are tasty. Yes I do like that they are airy, but they are too airy, and just an outer crust. For the price, I'd expect more cookie and less air.

Light and delightful almond flavor!

Every year my family has used Amaretto cookies as a crumble on top of our butternut squash soup at Thanksgiving. We crush them and sprinkle them on the soup similar to sprinkling cheese on pasta. This year I forgot to shop for these early enough and the store was sold out. I took a chance ordering these online even though I wasn’t familiar with the brand.These came next day. They were wrapped in bubble wrap with care and shipped in an appropriately sized box. Nothing was crushed! The cookies are fresh and absolutely delicious. This is a brand I will purchase again. Made in Italy and exactly what I hoped for. I will put the rest of the package out with our dessert. These are delicious along side a cup of coffee!
