I’ve always been a breakfast person. Some people skip it, but I feel better from the get go if I start my day with at least a little something and not an empty stomach. Thanks to an opportunity to review Nonni’s Biscotti, I’ve had a lot of great starts lately!
Let me first say that I am a dunker. That’s right, I dunk my biscotti right into my coffee before every single bite. I don’t think I’m original with this concept, but I think it’s worth noting so that it’s clear how I enjoy my biscotti. I want it soft and flavored with a bit of my coffee so that it melts in my mouth every time. And yes, that’s just how it is to enjoy some Nonni’s!
Thanks to Costco I was aware of the Almond Dark Chocolate flavor, which I purchased a while back in a nice sized tub from their store. Because each of the biscotti are individually wrapped, they stay fresh and ready to eat at a moments notice. This is handy for this mom on the go! What I didn’t know is that they make the same flavor in a bite size. This is handy but also means I can eat more of them in one sitting! 😉
The other wonderful flavors I was happy to try out included Classic Almond, Caramel Milk Chocolate, Cioccolati and Salted Caramel. They were all fantastic and happily eaten up by both my kids and I. It turns out they are also delicious when dunked in milk — this according to my son, who ate most of the Caramel Milk Chocolate bites! My favorite was the Cioccolati, which isn’t shocking since I’m a lover of chocolate, but it wasn’t overwhelming, either. Those came individually wrapped and have managed to last to this day. I won’t say where I’m hiding them.
Another favorite was the Salted Caramel. One thing I would suggest is that this is a sweeter cookie and is best served as a dessert. I imagine either enjoying one in the afternoon with a little pick-me-up cup of coffee, or perhaps after dinner with a cup of decaf or a dessert drink. No matter when you eat it, it’s a tasty treat.
My eyes weren’t very open to biscotti before now, but I have since seen Nonni’s on the shelves in all of my local grocery stores. I’m glad to know that when the last crumb is dipped, I can pick up some more very conveniently. Thank you to Nonni’s Biscotti for sending me these delicious samples, along with a darling mug that I use frequently. This cookie lover appreciates it!

Since Originali Biscotti has inserted plastic trays in the packages there have been more broken cookies than previously. You can save some money by eliminating the plastic trays.
