Bigné Toffee – A Decadent Italian Delight
Indulge in the exquisite combination of delicate choux pastry, rich zabaglione cream, and a crisp layer of golden toffee with Brunetti Classico’s Bigné Toffee. This Italian pastry is a masterpiece of textures and flavours, offering a delightful crunch with every bite, followed by the silky smoothness of its luxurious filling.
A Classic Italian Pastry with a Modern Twist
The Bigné, Italy’s take on the classic French profiterole, is a beloved dessert known for its light and airy choux pastry shell. At Brunetti Classico, we have elevated this traditional favourite with a luscious zabaglione cream filling, a custard-like Italian delicacy made from egg yolks, sugar, and a touch of liqueur. This creates a smooth, velvety texture that perfectly complements the crisp exterior.
To take this indulgence even further, each Bigné Toffee is finished with a shiny, golden layer of crisp toffee, adding an irresistible crunch that contrasts beautifully with the soft cream inside. The combination of flavours—the deep caramelised sweetness of toffee, the rich zabaglione, and the light choux pastry—creates a dessert that is simply unforgettable.
A Harmony of Textures and Flavours
One bite of the Bigné Toffee is an experience of perfect balance. The crispy choux pastry provides a delicate crunch, giving way to the silky, rich zabaglione cream, which melts on the tongue. The toffee topping adds a crisp, caramelised snap, delivering a satisfying contrast that makes every bite unique.
The subtle notes of marsala or other liqueur in the zabaglione enhance the complexity of flavours, ensuring that this pastry is not just sweet but also rich and deeply satisfying. The toffee’s buttery, slightly smoky caramel flavour rounds out the dessert, making it an instant favourite for anyone who appreciates refined sweets.
Perfect for Any Occasion
Whether you’re looking for a decadent afternoon treat, an elegant addition to a dessert spread, or a luxurious gift, the Bigné Toffee is a perfect choice. Its bite-sized elegance makes it an easy and enjoyable indulgence for any occasion.
