Sharing Secrets with Almondina -- Almondina Review

Does your Grandma have a secret recipe?  My Grandmother makes some really awesome potato salad.  I know a lot of my friends have Grandmothers that are known for their cakes.   At Almondina, their Grandmother's secret recipe for cookies!


Almondina® is the inspiring success story of a man whose great loves include both music and wonderful food. For generations his family loved his grandmother Dina’s most secret cookie, which she called Petit Gateau Sec. Yuval Zaliouk, an internationally known symphony conductor and gourmet chef, always had a special place in his heart (and stomach) for this exquisite, crispy wafer with the delicate flavor of roasted almonds and the natural sweetness of plump raisins.



Husband certainly thinks the Almondina biscuits are delicious. When I informed him that we would be doing a review for them, he got really excited  Most excited to try the Pistachio and Sesame varieties!

  
As you can see from the picture, the Almondina biscuits have large slices of almonds and other pieces such as pistachios, cherries, raisins, etc.  The biscuits are crunchy.  They are great dipped in coffee or tea, but Husband also enjoys them by themselves.  He likes them in his lunch to round out his day!  Cooper is a big fan of putting peanut butter on top of the biscuit.  Ally likes to have them right before bed with a glass of Almond Milk. 

Almondina biscuits do not contain cholesterol, added fat, trans-fats, salt of preservatives.  You know what that says to me?  That you can eat these and not worry about too much except the delicious flavor and crunch!  It is time that you discover Grandmother's Secret on your own.  

You can pick up your Almondina at a retailer near you or check out their website!
