Camillo de Blas Mini Carbayones – Almond & Egg Yolk Sweets 180g

Carbayones are a traditional Asturian sweet, and Camillo de Blas has perfected them since the 19th century. These mini versions combine a tender almond base with a rich egg-yolk center — a delicate balance of nutty and golden flavors that feel both rustic and refined. At 180 grams, this box holds the perfect number for sharing or savoring one with coffee throughout the week.

About this product

Each carbayón is hand-finished with a light dusting of powdered sugar and a toasted almond on top. The texture is crumbly yet moist, never dry. Camillo de Blas sources premium Marcona almonds and farm eggs, then bakes in small batches in their Oviedo workshop. The result tastes like it came from a village pastelería, not a factory.

How to enjoy

• Pair with strong coffee or a copa of Asturian cider in the afternoon.
• Offer as a small gift alongside a Spanish wine or spirits bottle.
• Crumble gently over vanilla ice cream for a simple dessert.
• Tuck into a packed lunch for a nostalgic treat.

⭐ Why we love this

Carbayones are Asturian heritage in edible form — a confection that has graced Spanish tables since medieval times, and Camillo de Blas has been the custodian of this tradition for nearly two centuries. The marriage of buttery almond and egg-yolk custard reflects the region's agricultural roots and its mastery of humble ingredients transformed into something sublime.

🍷 Pairing suggestion

Serve these with a glass of traditional Asturian sidra (cider) — the slightly funky, tart notes cut beautifully through the richness of the egg yolk and complement the almond nuttiness. Alternatively, pair with strong espresso or a generous pour of Asturian orujo for an authentic afternoon break.

📍 From Spain
