Martorana fruit

The fruit of Martorana (marturana fruit in Sicilian) is a typical Sicilian sweet (whose origin was in the Palermo area), also widespread in Calabria.

It is a cake famous in the world because its preparation and packaging provides, in the form and appearance at the end of the preparation process, the perfect imitation or reproduction of fruit and sometimes vegetables or fish.

Internally it is similar to marzipan but considerably sweeter and tastier. The basis of his recipe is exclusively almond flour and honey.
