Ofelle of Parona 6.7 oz

Ofelle were first produced at the end of the 19th century in Parona, a small village near Pavia.
They are sweet biscuits of puff pastry of an unmistakable oval form with both extremities pointed. Paronese housewives used to love preparing them on the first Sunday of October yust before the Village Fair, which coincided with the celebration of the Madonna of the Rosary. On that occasion the Ofelle were offered after the festive lunch to all visitors who had come to the village to spend some happy hours whit friends and family. Nowadays - like in the past - the right combination of flour -eggs- butter and sugar, together with the right method of baking, make this sweet a light and pleasant "break".
