panforte

The Chocolate & Hazelnut Panforte is a result of many flavour experiments and a Gold Medal winner at the Sydney Royal Fine Food Show. After quite a few tasting sessions with friends, we decided on this wonderful, rich recipe with just a hint of orange and black pepper. It is mixed by hand to retain the texture of the almonds, nuts and figs for both taste and presentation. Local walnuts and honey plus roasted local hazelnuts is mixed with dark chocolate; almonds, superb spices and mixed fruit. A small slice with a cup of coffee goes a long way - it's rich and very addictive.
