Introduction

Torrone Rinaldi Alla Mandorla is a mouth-watering honey nougat confection, with a lineage that reaches back through history to ancient Rome. Made of almonds, honey and egg white, this delicacy was served both as a dessert at formal events and, on other occasions, as an offering to the gods.

Now, the simple act of eating this exquisite confection is in itself an occasion.

South Australia is home to some of the finest Torrone in the world. How that came about is just one more chapter in the life of a dessert that was first created in the royal kitchens of Cremona in 1441 to commemorate a wedding.
