Say no to stingy! Say yes to CoffaroFeb 18, 2011
By Zhara um NIkko

Rarely does a biscotti ever have in reality all the goodies that the picture on the box promises.
Coffaro's Almond & Cherry Olive Oil Biscotti deliveries the detail.
Visit their website and discover that Coffaro is a family-run business, with only one product - allowing them to do one thing, and to do it very very well: they make biscotti.
There's no stinginess - the ingredients are top notch. The variety of almonds they use are fat, slightly rounded and a little bit small. Small is plentiful and small is good in this case; these aren't the big mild-flavored things that show up in your bridge mix. Instead, these almonds are so rich with the Amaretto flavor, that almond note of pure almond extraxt - that you'd swear that you smell the almonds before you crunch them. They aren't broken bits of almonds either - that's for lesser manufacturers. These are whole, fresh and delicious. the most striking thing is how many of them turn up in each package - tremendously impressive in a world where other companies wave a single almond at the vat of cookie dough and call it good.
The cherries make for a tender chewy punctuation between all the crisp, wonderful biscotti and crunchy, flavorful almonds. The biscotti itself is slightly smoother than most, slightly denser than many of the crumbly bars offered up in premium coffee shops, yet the bite, the mouthfeel, all perfectly craggy, crunchy and satisfying.
The Coffaro's traditional recipe is easy on the sugar, which is another factor that lets the texture and the almonds' flavor shine through as the top stars. Do not fear the olive oil; this is clearly the second or third pressing elixir, containing all the healthy lipids, but none of the chlorophylls nor savory flavors of the extra-virgin type.
Can't wait for the next Subscribe-n-Save shipment of these terrific bites of Italian tradition - already gave a box away to friends and they want more too.

Delicate and delightfulJan 28, 2011
By Talvi I love biscotti and I always keep an eye out for new bicotti to try. I found this on Amazon while doing a search and have to admit that the packaging really caught my eye, and the ingredients (hazelnut, orange zest, and olive oil) intrigued me. My three boxes arrived yesterday and I couldn't make a cup of coffee fast enough to try these with.
They did not disappoint! In fact, they are divine. They have a delicate hazelnut flavor with a dash of exciting orange zest that aren't lost when dunked in coffee. They're also not too sweet, they're just right. They are the small-sized biscotti (a bit bigger than a man's thumb) and have a nice texture that is different from your typical super-hard crunchy biscotti (they have a smoothness that I'm guessing is the olive oil).
These are an indulgent treat that I'd feel proud to serve to friends with coffee or tea. I'm looking forward to trying their other flavors.

Subtly DeliciousAug 27, 2010

We ordered several different types after trying the Lemon Zest and Blueberry biscotti. While they have a softer texture than Nonni's brand biscotti, we found them to be delicious, either alone or dipped in coffee. We were delightfully surprised that the Olive oil did not override the hazelnut and orange flavors.
