Etymology

The origin of cantucci can be traced back to the city of Prato in Tuscany, Italy. They have been a popular treat in Italy for centuries and are often associated with Tuscan cuisine. The name 'cantucci' is derived from the Latin word 'cantellus' which means 'a little slice'. Traditional cantucci were originally made with almonds, sugar, flour, and eggs, and they were baked twice to achieve their characteristic crunchiness.
