BUCCELATO

Description

Bring a taste of Sicily to your Christmas table with our handcrafted Buccellato – a traditional Italian shortbread wreath that’s as beautiful as it is delicious.

Shaped into a classic festive wreath, this rustic pastry is made from buttery shortbread dough, carefully filled with a rich, aromatic blend of dried figs, roasted pistacchios, and a splash of Marsala wine. The result is a dense, fragrant centre that balances sweetness with spice, crunch with chew, and tradition with indulgence.

Buccellato has long been a symbol of celebration in Sicilian households, often enjoyed during the holidays and shared with loved ones as a sign of prosperity and good fortune. Our version honours that heritage, using time-honoured ingredients and techniques to recreate this festive favourite in all its glory.

The pastry is scored and shaped by hand, giving each one its signature wreath appearance and a golden, slightly rustic finish once baked. It’s as visually striking as it is flavourful—making it a perfect centrepiece for dessert platters, gifting, or festive morning teas.

The filling is what makes Buccellato truly special. Figs bring natural sweetness and a tender bite, while pistacchios add rich nuttiness and texture. The Marsala wine, with its warm, slightly spiced profile, ties everything together and enhances the flavour without overpowering it.

Presented simply yet elegantly, this is a product that speaks for itself. It pairs beautifully with coffee, tea, or a small glass of dessert wine, and is best enjoyed sliced into thin wedges to showcase the intricate filling.

Available for a limited time during the Christmas season, Brunetti Classico’s Buccellato is a celebration of Italian tradition, seasonal flavours, and artisanal craftsmanship. A must-have for lovers of authentic festive fare.
