Italian gifts and foods arriving

Foodie gifts & treats

This is the time of year when lots of delicious and beautiful looking goodies arrive in the shop already for the Festive Season (can't quite bring ourselves to say Christmas).

There are so many wonderful foods available this time of year - not least from Italy, which is where our delivery was from this week.



We have fluffily moist panettone cake and fruity panforte which is a slab of densely packed dried fruit and nuts that is delicious with a slice of pecorino sheep's cheese.

We love these miniature chocolate meringues which melt in the mouth that just go so well with brandy soaked fruit or just pop one in your mouth at the end of a meal with your coffee.










These earthenware olive oil bottles are beautiful too - a lovely addition to any kitchen and you can just keep refilling it when the oil finishes.




We have lots of fun at Papadeli selecting (and tasting) all the fine foods and love it when the shop gets really full of the gorgeous delicacies.
