(pass by)
- We start our food tour with the famous Gianduiotto: it is a chocolate born in 1852 in Turin, shaped as ingots and incredibly creamy.Gianduiotti are individually wrapped in gold tinfoil and created with a unique mixture of Piedmont hazelnut, cocoa and sugar. (pass by)
- In the second stop, you will taste the Bicerin: It is a layered drink made of espresso, drinking chocolate, and whole milk (or heavy cream) served in a large glass. The beverage has been known since the 18th century and was also praised by Alexandre Dumas in his letters. Another tasting is the Marron glacé: it is a precious confection, originating in Piedmont and consisting of a chestnut candied in sugar syrup and glazed. They were invented shortly after the crusaders returned to Europe with sugar because chestnuts were a very available ingredient in the woods of Piedmont. Marron glaceés were the favourite dessert of the royal family! (pass by)
- We go on with the typical Cremino. This is a chocolate originally from Piedmont, composed by three layers of chocolate, the outer ones are made with gianduia chocolate, while the inner one can be made with coffee, hazelnut paste, lemon and so much more. In the warm season, we will taste the actual artisan gelato covered in crunchy dark chocolate: Pinguino ice cream! (pass by)
- At the end of the tour, you will try artisanal sliced chocolate, artisanal ice cream and an excellent espresso, the best way for concluding our journey into Turinese patisserie’s ancient tradition. We will have one in one of the oldest and most beautiful cafes in town. (pass by)
