Occhio di Bue con Marmellata di Arancia

Producer: Gentile Origin: Gragnano, Italy

The orange variant of the Occhio di Bue stands out for its more decisive and enveloping personality. The base is a shortcrust pastry made by hand, following recipes faithful to tradition and worked with patience to ensure a perfect consistency: crumbly but compact, soft to the bite and with an intense aroma of butter and vanilla.

The filling is a full-flavored orange jam, prepared with citrus fruits ripened in the Campania sun. The flavor of the orange is intense but balanced, with a slight bitter note that recalls candied peel and gives depth to the overall flavor of the biscuit. The natural sweetness of the jam contrasts pleasantly with the butter of the pastry, creating a refined and surprising combination.

Perfect to enjoy with a cup of black tea or to offer as an after-dinner treat, the Occhi di Bue all’arancia represent a more adult and sophisticated version of the classic biscuit, designed for those looking for something simple but with character.
