Did you know that... the hazelnut is an ancient food, known since ancient times. It originates from Asia Minor and was later introduced to Sicily by the Greeks around the first century B.C. Since then, the Sicilian hazelnut has become an integral part of the local gastronomic culture. The most common varieties are the Tonda Gentile Romana, the Tonda Estiva, and the Piemonte IGP (protected geographical indication). The organic Sicilian carob with hazelnut has a rich and creamy flavor that comes from the combination of these genuine ingredients: organic Sicilian carob and hazelnuts. The organic Sicilian carob with hazelnut represents an excellent alternative for those who want to try something new without giving up the traditional flavors of Mediterranean cuisine.
