BRONTELAB

It all began with desire, passion, and perseverance from a group of young people from Bronte. These ambitious youths, deeply in love with tradition and authentic flavors, decided to pursue their dream: creating a workshop where they could craft true masterpieces of sweetness. Criscenti, a laboratory of sweet creations, was founded in 2021 on the western slopes of Mount Etna, in the Sicilian town of Bronte, homeland of the famous Bronte Green Pistachio D.O.P., known for its unique organoleptic properties. Pistachio, the star ingredient in many Criscenti products, offers a wide range of aromas with distinctive and refined flavors. The workshop makes use of local Sicilian raw materials, placing at the heart of many baked goods the sourdough starter, called “U Criscenti” in dialect. The long leavening processes (up to 36 hours) allow for products that are light, well-balanced in taste, and easy to digest. Quality control is maintained at every stage of production, preserving an ancient process that ensures a wholesome, high-quality product to bring to your table.
