Spongata cake is a typical dessert of Emilia Romagna, with very ancient Jewish traditions. In Busseto (Parma), when Giuseppe Verdi had just finished publishing the libretto for Don Carlos (1867), in the ancient pastry shop Muggia this specialty of shortcrust pastry filled with honey, almonds, pine nuts, candied fruit, citrus, and raisins was born. A specialty that the composer was fond of! Since then, the original recipe has remained unchanged and Piccolo Mondo del Gusto bakes all the spicy fragrance of a historical and precious dessert that evokes, in its full and enveloping taste, the great music of Giuseppe Verdi.
