November 2023 - The countdown to the arrival of Christmas has also begun this year: the days are getting shorter and shorter, cities are beginning to carpet their main streets with illuminations and streamers, and the first decorated trees can be glimpsed from the windows of homes. For adults and children alike, the period of looking forward to the Holidays has officially begun, which Slitti, one of Italy's best-known chocolate shops, based in Monsummano Terme (Pistoia, Tuscany), has decided to make it even sweeter by producing its first vintage-style Advent Calendar, completely hand-painted by Fabio Slitti, son of Daniele Slitti, owner of the Slitti Cioccolato bakery, and grandson of the multiple award-winning Maitre Chocolatier Andrea Slitti, now at the helm of the Chocolate Factory in Monsummano Terme..
Whether for a special gift, for a friend, for one's children or for oneself, the Slitti's Vintage Advent Calendar is ideal for those who look forward to Christmas all year round, and this time they can do so while enjoying, day after day, the 25 pralines gluten-free contained in the little windows, made with artisanal chocolate by the expert and passionate hands of Andrea Slitti. A sensory journey to discover the scents and taste of the finest quality chocolate, which Andrea Slitti has been working with meticulous care for more than 20 years.
A chocolate with a balanced and defined taste is contained in the pralines, to whose goodness contributes the excellent raw material from Ecuador, Peru, Venezuela, Jamaica, Santo Domingo and Madagascar. Since this product is also dedicated to the little ones, Slitti has selected only products with fillings without alcohol, both milk and fondant.
Finally, inside the Calendar, Slitti's Choco team has hidden a nursery rhyme invented to bring even more joy and elation into the homes of those who will buy it.
"This year we wanted to give an extra gift to our customers, to the children who excitedly await the arrival of Santa Claus but also to the older ones, who in the Holidays find a moment of joy, sharing and relaxation. Our Calendar is a way to get closer to them, to tell them a story of quality, family but also passion and to confirm once again the goodness of our chocolate, which is the soul and beating heart of our company.", comments Andrea Slitti, Maitre Chocolatier at the helm of Slitti's Chocolate Factory..
