Almonds stuffed with nougat and honey

Almonds stuffed with traditional Jijona nougat with 70% almonds and coated with wafer creating a contrast between the crunchy texture of the wafer and the creamy texture of Jijona nougat. Individually wrapped.

Almonds stuffed with nougat are a typical Spanish delicacy, especially popular during the Christmas holidays. This delicacy combines two traditional ingredients: the wafer and nougat.

Wafer: we make an almond based on Wafer where we introduce the filling.

Nougat filling: Nougat is a sweet made mainly from honey, sugar, egg white and almonds. It can be hard (Alicante type) or soft (Jijona type). For stuffed almonds, soft nougat is normally used, which has a creamier texture and is more suitable as a filling.

The preparation usually involves slightly hollowing out the inside of the almond to make room for the nougat. The almonds are then carefully filled with soft nougat, forming a delicious combination of flavors and textures. Sometimes, these filled almonds can also be covered in chocolate or dusted with icing sugar for an extra sweet touch.

It is a delicious snack that combines the sweet and creamy taste of nougat with the crunchiness of almonds, offering a gastronomic experience very representative of Spanish sweet traditions.

INGREDIENTS : Nougat ((90%) roasted almonds (70%), honey (15%)), sugar, egg white powder, wafer.
