Tradition... In 1858 Antonio Mattei opened his business, producing and selling the typical almond biscuits in the old town centre of Prato. His original recipe was awarded a prize at the Exhibitions in Florence (1861), London (1862) and Paris (1867) and it is still kept as a secret of the Pandolfini family, which inherited the old bakery in 1908. In 2008 the brother and sisters Francesco, Marcella, Elisabetta and Letizia Pandolfini celebrated with the whole town the one hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the founding of the biscuit factory, and they continue the tradition of the Biscotti di Prato, proudly spreading their town’s image and flavour throughout Italy and the world.
... and innovation
The natural evolution of things: this is the company Deseo for Francesco Pandolfini, the third generation of the Biscottificio Antonio Mattei. If the classic style and tradition of ancient recipes is on the scene at the Biscottificio Mattei, Deseo is the pastry maker’s
workroom for creative experimentation. Every year there are new combinations, new packaging, always attentive to the needs of a regular clientele already widespread in Italy and in the world; this is how Deseo biscuits make a unique contribution to products MADE in ITALY, interpreting the old family tradition in their own original way.
