Clarine's Florentines Reviews
I recently had a party and immediately thought of Clarine's Florentines for dessert. They were a huge hit with the guests. They are a nice size, they are crunchy but not crumbly, the chocolate and almonds are paired perfectly. They are also beautiful and elegant for nice occasions.
I just bought a package of these florentines today at Le Beau market in Nob Hill.. and now I'm obsessed!!! These are absolutely delicious - a perfect balance of flavors and not at all too sweet. I'm now trying to figure out how long their shelf life is, so I can plan accordingly for holiday gift baskets for friends and family. They're too fantastic to not include!

These are simply the best Florentine 'cookies' available anywhere! They are very similar to the ones I had as a boy growing up in Berkeley that were available at a Telegraph Avenue bakery that were made fresh every day. It was a treat as a child to go to Moe's Bookstore and then have my parents, professors at UC-Berkeley, take me for a special treat of Florentines. Clarine's Florentines bring me back to my favorite childhood delight. I love these! Enjoy.
