Easter 2023 with Bronte store

Easter, like Christmas, is one of the most celebrated holidays, and is usually celebrated in the period between March and April after carnival. The feast represents a rebirth and renewed hope in life, happiness and love, which is what we want to convey with our Easter cake proposals.

In Italy and Sicily, there are many traditions and sweet recipes that distinguish region by region, municipality by municipality. We have selected for you the most popular ones to delight the palates of adults and children alike.

If you're looking for a tasty and original alternative for Easter this year, you've come to the right place!
Revisiting the great pastry classics:
Colomba al pistacchio and colomba classica, granulated pistachio egg, pistachio and fondant bigusto egg and pistachio mini egg.

Pistachio is an increasingly popular ingredient on the tables of Italians, and its intense, buttery flavour can add a special note to the Easter festivities.

As is well known, pistachios have many beneficial properties, so they are also useful for a more genuine and healthy Easter because pistachios are 

-Rich in potassium, pistachios promote vasodilation and thus combat high blood pressure.
-Contains monosaturated fats helping to fight bad cholesterol.
-Prevents type two diabetes, due to the presence of mineral salts.
-Contains phosphorus, which also keeps glucose in check and breaks down amino acids.
-The presence of copper in pistachios promotes iron absorption, thus counteracting the risks of anaemia
-Also present is vitamin B6, which stimulates the production of haemoglobin that oxygenates the blood and the production of myelin, a substance that presides over the exchange of information between nerve fibres in the brain.

There are different varieties and qualities of pistachios in the world, the Bronte pistachio, for example, is produced in a lava soil called sciara that can only be worked manually without the aid of mechanical means, then there is the Agrigento pistachio that grows in the soil unlike the Bronte pistachio, or even very good qualities of pistachios from abroad Greece Turkey etc. that are also grown in the soil.

EASTER AT PISTACHO 2023 proposals

So given the excellent properties of pistachio, we thought of making the Pistachio Chocolate Easter Egg, a great choice for chocolate and pistachio lovers! We top it with pistachio granules to give a more intense pistachio flavour and crunch.

As a second proposal, there is the bigusto egg, which combines the delicacy of pistachio with the strong flavour of dark chocolate for a special mix of flavours.
And for the little ones, or as a tasty snack to pamper the palate of the older ones, the mini pistachio egg.

Let's move on to leavened baked desserts, such as our pistachio colomba in the filled version for the pleasant surprise of a creamy bite or in the version with a separate squeezer jar so that you can put the desired amount of cream in your slice... Ideal for those who prefer to dose the amount of cream on the slice.

We also have the classic version with candied fruit just so as not to neglect Italian tradition and to please the taste of many.

We at Bronte store have decided to specialise only and exclusively in pistachio products. Our master pastry chefs are constantly searching for new recipes and optimising products such as pistachio cream, pistachio pesto, pistachio cake, our much-loved pistachio panettone and much more can be found in our store.
