Leave the filter coffees to their doughnut dunking – a Nespresso Grand Cru invites a more elegant pairing. The Nespresso Food & Bites collection includes biscuits and chocolates that will introduce you to indulgent new flavour combinations.
Cantuccini
Made using a traditional Italian recipe, these crunchy biscuits are baked with almonds. Cantuccini (also known as almond biscotti) are firm and dry in consistency so they are perfect for dipping in a creamy cup of coffee – they also taste great with dessert wine. Try balancing these sweet treats with the toasted cereal notes of a Dharkan espresso.
Amaretti
A classic Italian biscuit, the perfect amaretto has a crisp exterior with a slightly soft, chewy inside. Often described as Italy’s answer to the French macaron, an amaretto biscuit’s main ingredient is ground almonds. Complement the almond taste of Amaretti from Nespresso with the Volluto Grand Cru, which has sweet, biscuit flavours and a little acidity.
Dolcetti L’Oranger
These delicate, orange-blossom-flavoured biscuits are hand-coated with icing. Made using only the finest ingredients, these delicate treats go well with the Bukeela ka Ethiopia Grand Cru, a delicately fresh and floral pure origin lungo with wild notes of musk and wood.
Financiers Pistache
Available in packs of 15, Nespresso Financiers Pistache are moist miniature cakes made with luscious ground pistachios. Complement the savoury finish of the pistachio with a round and smooth coffee: the Linizio Lungo has a cereal, malty note and a mild character.
Dark and Milk Chocolate
Nespresso Chocolat Lait (41% minimum cocoa solids) and Chocolat Noir (70% minimum cocoa solids) are crammed with simple pleasure. Sold in packs of 40 pieces, these chocolates can be paired with an intense, chocolatey Grand Cru such as Arpeggio, with its strong character and intense body enhanced by cocoa notes.
