The Traditional Italian Biscotti, the Cookie Popular at All Times and Especially During the Upcoming Holidays, Takes on Physically Enormous Proportions

The traditional Italian Biscotti, popular at all times and especially during the upcoming Holidays, takes on physically enormous proportions (12 inches / 30 centimeters) at Central Italian Company of St. Clairsville, Ohio.

A midwest company is truly taking the love of biscotti to gigantic proportions, and positioning it as a healthier holiday cookie alternative.

The traditional centuries-old cookie, the Biscotti, is typically a small 2-3 inches long culinary item, ideal for dunking and enjoying with espresso or cappucino.

However, Central Italian Biscotti Company of Eastern Ohio, with close connections to southern Italy, now features a very unique 12-inch long, hand made and individually wrapped Biscotti, which is garnering national attention.

It's a very popular low calorie and natural alternative to the usual Holiday calorie-laden cookie fare...we have been receiving incredible response to them," says Luciano Nardone, one of the owners. "Federal health guidelines suggest that soy-bean based foods are an increasingly healthier alternative to those with butter and other fats," adds Nardone.

The biscotti are made of only the purest possible ingredients of unbleached flour, fresh eggs, cane sugar, soy-bean oil and natural flavors, rather than butter or other oils.

"The size of the actual biscotti also provides for a consistent quality and ease in packing," indicates Michael Angelo Massa, company spokeperson. The company's unique treats are known world-wide and also serve as perfect supplements for gift-baskets, stocking stuffers and related items.

Due to their unusual size, Central Italian's Biscotti are frequently used to complement servings of ice-cream, and are perfect for dipping in cappucino, milk, wine and other beverages.

The company's Biscotti, which have been featured on the Fine Living Network, are completely hand-made and twice cooked.

The company, founded by Nardone and his sister, Carmela Massa, Italian-born siblings, has grown in popularity since the company was founded over a decade ago, with its inclination toward healthier eating.

The naturally flavored Biscotti are produced in up to 20 various flavors including the timeless classics of Almond and Anise, and supplemented with exotically delightful offerings such as Amaretto, Chocolate Mint, Lemon, Cinammon and a host of other surprising flavors.
