Box of 12 tubes, each 150g, of mixed crunchy nougat, already cut into thin flakes.
Each piece is unique and "imperfect" because it is handmade. Mountainous and white like the Dolomites. This is how Fiorenzo Sgambaro, the founder of the company, imagined Tuttemandorle nougat in the 1950s and this is how he made it. The cutting process is done manually: to reach the right weight it is necessary to trim its sides. It was precisely during this process that Cristalli were born.
Crunchy and irresistible: the thin flakes resulting from the trimming of the nougat quickly conquered Dolcital employees that started to eat them during their breaks.
Their thin shape and the incredible crunchiness made them easy to eat. Faced with the deliciousness of these flakes, the owners immediately recognized the product’s potential and decided to package it in an elegant glass jar to be offered at the company outlet store.
The request of the product quickly increased: the flakes made from the cutting process were not enough. Fiorenzo decided to implement the production studying and designing a specific cutting technology, dedicating an entire processing line to this new product.
A new packaging was necessary as nougat needed to be protected from humidity and easy to eat everywhere. Soon an idea: a transparent plastic tub.
A flaked nougat like this had never been seen before, and the crystal-like sweetness of almond nougat had never been presented in a tray.
That first time would prove to be the right one. It was the first time a nougat was sold in a plastic tub.
That first time was the right time. Cristalli’s time.
