Le Dolcezze di Nanni

Since 1959, in Ponte d’Arbia, in the heart of the Val d’Arbia near the Via Francigena in Tuscany the family of Giovanni Marini—known to friends as “Nanni”—has been delighting sweet lovers from all over the world with the wonderful products of the ancient Sienese pastry tradition.

From the skilled hands of Marco, heir to his father “Nanni’s” passion for pastry-making and guardian of the recipes passed down by Grandma Ada, the delicacies of this land rich in ancient flavours are still brought to life every day, just as they were in the past.

The entirely artisanal production of these homemade sweets, combined with the use of top-quality ingredients (natural and preservative-free), has made “Nanni’s” pastry shop famed and frequented by food lovers from Siena and beyond.

Their panforte—still cooked in copper cauldrons and then worked by hand to preserve its traditional flavuor and aroma—Ricciarelli and Amaretti made from carefully selected almonds, kneaded and then shaped one by one, Cantucci, Brutti e Buoni, Biscottoni, and many other traditional sweets make up a range that preserves the naturalness and authenticity of its ingredients, combining craftsmanship with strict and meticulous quality control.
