Occhio di Bue Albicocca

Producer: Gentile Origin: Gragnano, Italy

The Apricot Ox Eye is a great classic of dry pastries, reinterpreted with the elegance and quality that distinguish the family artisan workshop. The base is a buttery, crumbly and fragrant shortcrust pastry, prepared with top-quality ingredients: soft wheat flour from an Italian supply chain, top-quality butter, fresh free-range eggs and sugar. In the center, a generous heart of Vesuvian apricot jam, sweet and slightly acidic, perfectly balanced to enhance the roundness of the biscuit.

The name “Occhio di Bue” comes from the typical shape of the biscuit, which features a perforated disk overlapping a full one, allowing a glimpse of the filling. From a sensorial point of view, the shortcrust pastry melts in the mouth, while the apricot jam adds a fresh and fruity note that gives balance and liveliness. It is the ideal biscuit for those who love authentic flavours, linked to tradition but with attention to the smallest details.
