Cheers,

Never heard of Torrone before, actually - looks delightful!! Thank you for the description of it!!

AND HOORAY FOR MAGAZINE MONDAYS!!

I would love to try it some time - looks yummy!

Oh I LOVE torrone. I eat buckets of the stuff at christmas. Now you can get it in all sorts of flavours and covered in chocolate but I only seem to like the original simple kind this. Never thought to make it before so will save me a small fortune - thanks!

Great round up! I’ve never heard of torrone, now I have to have it.

The torrone looks amazing and I don’t think I’ll be the only one making it this week… Thanks for sharing.

Did I miss sending you mine last week?

And pistachios do make things look pretty. I should pick some up.

I love this! I can’t believe you made these at home, how awesome!

this looks awesome! so perfect and nice. Ideal as a present

torrone!! so good!

cheers,

*heather*

Mmmm, I can’t believe you made torrone! It looks luscious — beautifully done!

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, torrone! It has been too long since I’ve enjoyed it. Now I shall be whining and sniffling. I could make it, you are right I surely could. But it would break my resolve not to eat sweets right now.

Foolish girl am I.

I wasn’t much of a fan until I discovered the softer version and from here the main flavor is hazelnut, my personal favorite. So yum to this one another difficult recipe demystified. thanks for sharing!

What’s Christmas without torrone? It’s a tradition in my husband’s family that his parents would give each one in the family (adults and children alike) a torrone for Christmas. We all looked forward to receiving it on Christmas Day. This version with the pistachios looks amazing. I actually think I have that Gourmet issue. Thanks for sharing the recipe! Maybe I will start a tradition for Easter!

yum yum yummy, i absolutely love torrone! last night i made the trekk to little italy and indulged in a some decadent chocolate covered turrone …oh and maybe a little of the hazelnut nougat layered turrone,just a tad….

These look super yummy and a nice change from all the chocolate!

This reminds me of what I used to eat when I lived in London and went to Borough market on the weekend. I’m excited to try this.

This looks simply divine!

I love torrone too. Ah memories of my childhood. Sitting around playing the torrone boxes. We would fold back one of the flaps on the small boxes and play them like kazoos.
The all torrone box orchestra lives on. LOL

We went to dinner the other night at our favorite pasta place in Nantes - the only real Italian restaurant run by real Italians - and they started selling boxed torrone! My husband drooled over it and I thought how much I would love to try making it. Thanks for showing this to me! It gives me that nudge I need.

And I may just join you for Magazine Monday next time!

I love Torrone almost as much as Divinity!

Hi Ivonne… that looks great!
I wanted to let you know… I have bookmarked several of your recipes over the years, and the ones that come from before the move often don’t load the pictures anymore. I noticed it before, but I’m sorry: I didn’t write down which posts, because I thought it was a problem with my browser.
Today I noticed it with the post for Trote all’Astigiana. I don’t know if there’s anything you can do about this (or if you want to do anything at all), but I thought I would bring it to your attention.

This reminds me of being a kid! Every Sunday after church we’d go to the Italian shop and my grandma would always buy me one of these. I loooved them. I applaud your efforts in making them- this is the kind of thing I’d be scared to attempt! Yours look perfect!

[…] Puffs in Venice - any time is torrone […]

Your posts are always a treat to open in my email. I never know what delicious goodie will greet my eyes. Once the photograph is finally revealed, it always warms my heart. The anticipation is as good as actually tasting and eating. Thank you for the care and love you pore into your site. I have just shared the “One Lovely Blog Award” with you on my site.

Wow that looks amazing. I have never had the homemade kind but I have had the store bought kind. Which I love by the way. But seeing yours, I know I would like yours much better.

So tell me, where exactly do you find the time for blog, DB, cooking/baking, work, homelife and Magazine Mondays?

I just adore torrone and usually end up bringing box after box back when I go to Italy I will definitely try this recipe out, thanks for sharing.

I bookmarked the recipe but after reading all the reviews I was afraid it wouldn’t have the right consistency. So for Christmas I made a different recipe, result: not the right consistency! (their taste was delicious though) So I should have tried this one because yours look just perfect!

Where can I get rice paper in Toronto? I checked Bulk Barns but they don’t carry it.
