Home Food & Wines Traditional Products Dolci di badia and Mustazzoli

These are traditional sweets, that were conceived and prepared in Erice’s convents of San Carlo and Santa Teresa, where the cloistered nuns would make these delicious recipes.

Dolci di badia are made with traditional local ingredients – almonds, citrus fruits such as citron, lemons and oranges, and honey – revealing their richness and precious variety.

Mustazzoli, also part of this ancient culinary tradition, are highly spiced biscuits, in which the almond base is blended and skilfully infused with ingredients such as cinnamon and cloves. These aromas combine perfectly with sweet wine with which they are best consumed in order to soften their texture and make them even more delicious.
