Pablo Garrigós Ibáñez Turrón de Jijona – Soft Nougat 300g

Pablo Garrigós Ibáñez has been crafting turrón in Jijona, Alicante, since the 19th century. This soft turrón de Jijona is made the traditional way: roasted almonds, honey, and egg white blended into a pale, almost-melting paste and wrapped in rice paper. A single bite dissolves on your tongue, leaving behind the clean sweetness of roasted almonds and floral honey notes.

About this product

Turrón de Jijona (also called turrón blando or soft turrón) is lighter and creamier than its cousin turrón de Alicante, with no crispy wafer layers—just pure almond paste. The production follows centuries-old methods, using whole almonds and a slow roasting process that builds depth without bitterness. This 300-gram bar is the classic format, sized for a few days of small indulgences or as a gift box centerpiece.

How to enjoy

• Cut thin slices with a warm knife for clean edges; serve after dinner with coffee or sherry.
• Pair with aged Manchego cheese for a tasting board that bridges sweet and savory.
• Crumble small pieces into Greek yogurt for a subtle almond sweetness.
• Enjoy at room temperature for the softest texture; chill slightly if the kitchen is very warm.

⭐ Why we love this

This is turrón in its purest, most refined form—a direct link to 19th-century Jijona tradition where only almonds, honey, and egg white create something impossibly silky. The slow roasting technique gives it depth that mass-produced versions simply cannot match, making each bite a masterclass in restraint and quality.

🍷 Pairing suggestion

Serve after dinner with a glass of Moscatel de Valencia or aged Oloroso sherry, which echoes the honey and almond notes beautifully. In Spain, turrón de Jijona is the traditional Christmas finale—pair it with strong coffee for an afternoon indulgence that feels both decadent and deeply comforting.
