This assorted box captures three classic flavor profiles that have graced Spanish tables since the 17th century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e🍷 Pairing suggestion\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePair these with an Oloroso or Amontillado sherry for evening elegance, or dunk into café con leche during breakfast—the crumbly texture dissolves seamlessly into hot beverages.
