Florentine cookies—which contain the typically French ingredients of butter, sugar, and cream— likely originated in France and were named for the birthplace of the famously Italian Queen of France, the cuisine-altering gastronome Catherine de Medici. Today, Florentines or Florentins are beloved globally as the succulent-chewy-caramel-chocolate-almond-and-orange-confection.
Who better to make Florentines than La Maison d’Armorine, centered in the capital of French caramel: Brittany, France? These beauties are a chewy, crunchy synthesis of buttery flavorful caramel, wonderful dark chocolate, toasted almonds, and a hint of candied orange.
Each box contains 8 cookies and is ideal for gifting.
