Torrone Tips

How should torrone be stored?

To preserve its quality, it is advisable to store torrone in a cool and dry location. If you plan to keep it for an extended period of time, you may opt to freeze hard torrone.

How do I cut hard torrone?

Place the block on a flat surface or cutting board. Place a cleaver, heavy knife, or clean screwdriver in the middle of the block. Tap gently but firmly on the knife with a hammer or rubber mallet. Avoid using a serrated knife will not work. Don’t hit the knife too hard or the block will crumble into pieces. Repeat with each smaller piece. There's a video on our Instagram account. Growing up we would put the piece of hard torrone in a paper bag and hit it with a hammer. This also works! Enjoy!

How do I cut soft torrone?

Place the block on a flat surface or cutting board and using a sizable steak or chef's knife place firm steady downward pressure on the block to cut. Avoid sawing it back and forth. Enjoy!

How do I remove the "paper"?

It's edible! There's no need to remove the "paper". Depending on the brand, it's usually made from rice flour or potato starch. It's used to keep the torrone from sticking to the wrapper. Go ahead and eat the "paper"!

Can you suggest some torrone for or a wedding or party?

I ordered a gift basket/box but an item was substituted. Why?

Products

Are you the manufacturer?

No, we don't make, package, or distribute the torrone! We work hard to source a wide variety of brands of torrone and confections but we don't make any of the products that we sell. For more information on the products we offer, visit our Product Selection page.

Why are so many items out of stock?

If you visit our site during the Spring, Summer, or early Fall you may notice that many of the products we carry are out of stock. This is because the majority of the Italian torrone and confection companies only ship to the U.S. for the winter holiday season. Starting in the Fall we begin to receive shipments of our favorite holiday items and continue to do so right up until Christmas! However, there are some products that we are able to carry all year long, letting you enjoy torrone throughout the year!

Do you carry gluten-free products?

Yes! Click here to see our gluten-free Italian confections including soft and hard torrone.

Can I request a product I don't see on your site?

We love to hear from our customers about new products they would like for us to source. Let us know what you're looking for and we'll be happy to consider it.

What's the white stuff on my chocolate?

Yes! It's not old and completely safe to eat. The "whitish powder" is not mold, it's called chocolate bloom. Bloom can occur when there is a change in temperature.
