BAIOCCHI CLASSICI BISCUITS IN PARIS

 I have developed a taste for Baiocchi  biscuits available  in various stores in Paris. Baiocchi Classici are a brilliant example of what Mulino Bianco does best: proper, nostalgic Italian baking with real flavour and no nonsense. You get two beautifully golden, buttery shortbread biscuits that are crumbly yet sturdy enough for dunking. The top one is stamped with that charming “Baiocchi” smiley face and five little holes, a proper bit of design that makes them instantly recognisable. Inside is a generous, silky layer of hazelnut and cocoa cream made from sustainably sourced hazelnuts. The taste is superbly balanced. The biscuit isn’t too sweet, which lets the rich, nutty cream shine without becoming sickly like some chocolate spreads. Mulino Bianco also make a point of using no palm oil, which matters to anyone who cares about ingredients and flavour. They’re marketed as a breakfast biscuit for dunking in your morning coffee or milk, and they absolutely excel at that, though they’re just as good as a mid-afternoon treat with an espresso. Simple, well made, and properly moreish. Once you open the pack it’s hard to stop at just one. In Paris, I munch two after the dinner is over.  

Founded in 1974 as a subsidiary of Barilla, Mulino Bianco was created to bring artisanal-style baked goods to Italian households. The brand quickly rose to prominence, becoming a staple in kitchens across the country and has now swept market across Europe .This Italian bakery brand  produces biscuits, snacks, breads and cakes. Giovanni Maestri  created the brand to differentiate Barilla's production, historically linked only to pasta.
