Moscovitas de Rialto Marcona Almond Paste – Chocolate-Covered 250g

Moscovitas de Rialto brings together two Spanish classics: the buttery, delicate Marcona almond from Tarragona and a coat of dark chocolate that breaks cleanly on the tongue. Each almond paste candy is hand-rolled and finished with a thin shell of chocolate, creating a contrast between soft interior and crisp exterior. These are the kind of confections that appear in Spanish gift boxes and on the desks of architects and lawyers — a quiet, refined indulgence rather than a shout.

About this product

Made from roasted Marcona almonds — the sweeter, more tender cousin of common almonds — these pastas are ground into a smooth paste, shaped, and enrobed in quality chocolate. The Marcona's natural sweetness means minimal added sugar; the chocolate provides just enough bitterness to balance. Store in a cool, dry place away from strong odors, as chocolate and almond easily absorb them.

How to enjoy

• As a single piece after coffee or a meal.
• Pair with sweet wine such as Moscatel or a dry amontillado sherry.
• Alongside a few berries or candied orange peel for a small plate.
• Tuck into a gift box or travel tin for someone who appreciates craft confectionery.

⭐ Why we love this

Moscovitas de Rialto represents Spanish confectionery at its most elegant—a product born from Tarragona's legendary almond heritage and the country's tradition of artisanal chocolate work. These hand-rolled candies epitomize *sobriedad*, that distinctly Spanish virtue of understated refinement that values quality over ostentation.

🍷 Pairing suggestion

Serve with a glass of Moscatel de Valencia or a dry Amontillado sherry for a classic Spanish combination that echoes the almond's natural sweetness. They're also sublime alongside strong espresso or as the finale to a composed cheese board with Manchego and quince paste.
