Hi all, I bought these biscuits from Palmisano Carmelina in Burano last month and have been obsessed with them. I’m on my last biscuit as I type this 🥲 and am hoping to know what they’re called so I can buy them in London (if it is even available). I’m also happy to recreate this if anyone knows a similar recipe, the biscuit is soft, not too crumbly and has a subtle coffee flavour. It’s absolutely delicious and I’d love to have something like it again.

Quadrotti Caffè?
They put their telephone number on the bottom so calling there might help
You can buy these, they might be importable.

The name is under the bag, quadrotti caffé.
It’s obviously an artisanal biscuit, so you could find nothing online under this name. Probably they did these biscuits and they called them quadrotti because they are square and caffe because they taste like coffee.
(In Italian quadrato is square, quadrotto is like square-ish maybe I don’t know precisely how to translate it in English)
I’d hall him Thomas

But they’re currently out of stock.
For some recipes, search for “frollini al caffè”.
