Cappuccino dragées 50 gr

There are several tales about the origin of dragées, or “confetti”.
It is supposed they were already known in Roman times: covered with honey (sugar had not been discovered yet), they were considered as a sort of fine “bon-bon” to be eaten on important occasions.
Another theory traces theirs origin back to 1200 ad: in this case too, they were very appreciated sweets by noble families, who used to keep them in precious decorated boxes.
These “confetti” were already known in Venice, brought to the city by merchants from the Far East and enjoyed during the Carnival celebrations.
Caffè Florian has created its own dragées combining the passion for coffee with the love for chocolate: Cappuccino dragées are roasted coffee beans, 100% Arabica quality, covered with very fine milk chocolate (cocoa minimum 33%).
The sweetness of the chocolate that surrounds the crunchy coffee bean, spread a rich and intense aroma that will give you the right energy and recharge.
Designed for those who prefer the bitter and delicate flavor of milk chocolate to the bitter taste of the fondant.
