FLOUR

TOASTED: the standard type is that which remains in the last sieve of the granulator. It is very fine but not completely impalpable. Typically used for biscuits, cakes, baci di dama and amaretti.

By special request we can refine this flour with stone rollers rendering it impalpable. However, this process compresses the flour causing the hazelnut oil to come out and the resulting product is greasier.

PASTE

We produce this type of paste with a blend of mortarelle hazelnuts, to give structure and intense colour, and tonda gentile trilobata hazelnut, to give a full flavour.

Standard packaging: metal/plastic of 5/20 kg

After some time the emergence of oil on the surface is an indication of natural character of the product. The hazelnut naturally contains a percentage of oil, so as it matures the heavy part of the paste sinks and the oil surfaces, acting as a natural preservative. It is therefore advisable to stir well, from the bottom up, before use.
