This is part of our Carluccio's Christmas Range Collection.
A rich, grown-up interpretation of traditional Piemontese Torrone, combining crisp hazelnut nougat, aromatic rum, honey, sultanas and chocolate.
Davide Barbero first makes the Torrone according to the family’s traditional recipe, using Piemonte hazelnuts, before setting it inside a chocolate shell with a soft filling of rum, honey and sultanas. The fruit helps keep the centre moist, creating a wonderful contrast with the crisp, crumbly Torrone.
Made in Asti by Davide Barbero, whose family has been associated with Torrone and confectionery for generations, it brings the producer’s traditional nougat-making expertise into a distinctly more indulgent form.
Deep, warming and satisfyingly rich, it is best cut into small pieces and enjoyed slowly after dinner — perhaps with coffee or a glass of rum alongside.
