Producer: Antonio Mattei

The town of Prato, just north of Florence, is the home of the much-loved cantucci, which is why this classic of the biscuit world is also known as Biscotti di Prato. Biscottificio Antonio Mattei, still operating in Prato, bakes its world-famous biscuits to its founder's original recipes.

Antonio Mattei's signature blue is a true classic in the food world. Mattei biscuits have been packed in beautiful blue packaging since the 1880s, and the trademark has even received rare protection from the EU. No other producer may use the same blue on its packaging.

Antonio Mattei started out in the 19th century, and the company has officially been in business for more than 160 years. While Biscottificio Antonio Mattei holds its traditions dear, it has also been recognized for its modern innovations and ways of working.

If you visit Tuscany, take time to see the Bottega Museum right in the center of Florence. There you can discover the history of Antonio Mattei and biscuit making – and, of course, taste Tuscan treats.
