Nestled under beautiful, carefully tied ribbon and specially selected, exquisite Florentine papers you will find hand and home made p a n e f o r t e, an intoxicating Italian specialty thought to have originated in Siena, in the region of Tuscany during the thirteenth century.
A triumph of aromas, taste and textures. Slim slices of this rich sensation are magnificent with liqueur, cognac, brandy, vin santo and a host of after dinner drinks. The perfect finish to a beautiful meal. Slip a sliver of this divine pick me up on the saucer to accompany your good coffee or aromatic tea. A stunning companion to a selection of fine cheese, crowning a bowl of vanilla bean ice cream or as some say. . . with nothing at all!
Some people even hide it!
ROMAGNA 29 is a small, privately owned and operated enterprise located in the beautiful Macedon Ranges. After many years hand making p a n e f o r t e for family, friends and colleagues, we are delighted to make it available for you to purchase.
Each p a n e f o r t e is generous and made completely by hand, at home to a treasured Italian family recipe, using select ingredients. No two are exactly the same. Small batches are made for each market and to order for each customer.
We only use papers made in Firenze Italia to hand wrap our p a n e f o r t e.
We take the time to source ingredients, papers and ribbons of exceptional quality, to carefully create for you a specialty quite unique which will engage all your senses - visually stunning, richly aromatic, divine to taste, beautiful to hold, give, receive and unwrap, hear the reaction to every slice of this age old Italian luxury. Slow everything down. Savour the exotic tastes.
Lovers of good food will love giving ROMAGNA 29 p a n e f o r t e when a very special gift is required at any time of the year.
We had to. ROMAGNA 29 has searched for the perfect ingredient and is delighted to bring you A Lo Cioccolato. Our hand and home made
paneforte is also available with a generous layer of fine, dark, decedent chocolate of high quality.
If the want of your senses is for the luscious sight, aroma, taste and feel of richly dark chocolate, and that sigh of relief, you must look for our exquisitely wrapped paneforte tied together with a distinctive ribbon the colour of cocoa.
"My wife and I share your magnificent paneforte with our guests as the grand finale to dinner parties served with a selection of cheese and liqueur as you suggest and everyone asks to be invited back! Thank you for making this truly magnificent specialty."
