Dates & Cookies

The word date that means “the fruit of the palm” and the word date that means “the time of an event” look alike, but they are not related. The word for the fruit can be traced back to the Greek word daktylos, meaning “finger” and “toe.” . The word data comes from the Latin word dare, “to give”.

Date cookies (Maamoul)

Cantuccini

Deliciously crunchy and nutty cantuccini are the cheeky siblings of biscotti. With their rich roasted almonds.

They’re at their very best when dunked in a glass of the Tuscan dessert wine, Vin Santo, although they’re almost as good with an espresso or cappuccino. Our cookie are gluten free. When it comes to these biscuits, the more almonds the better.
