Il Cantuccio February 7, 2010

‘Cantuccio’ is the local word for ‘biscotti di Prato’, the hard, almond biscuits that are traditionally dipped in Vin Santo. It is also the name of a tiny new shop in the Santo Spirito district of Florence. A stone’s thrown from the famous piazza, the shop specialises in all sorts of carefully-sourced biscuits, cakes, jams, chocolate, dessert wines and speciality coffees and teas. Excellent for an unusual present or plain self-indulgence.
