Panforte on sanpellegrino.com

My macro photo titled "mixed" was featured on S. Pellegrino's web site! :)))
It was used for an article titled "Sienese Confections, Medieval Flavour" to help illustrate an Italian cake called Panforte.

Here is a tidbit from the article:
There are several legends: one story of the Panforte relates that it was invented by chance by a young nun who put several ingredients together - dry and candied fruit, spices, honey, a little flour - and made a strong flavoured cake that keeps for a long time, hence the name "forte".

"The official [San Pellegrino] website is dedicated to the S.Pellegrino and and Acqua Panna waters - with its extensive sections spanning all the interesting nuances of Italian culture, from the thousands peculiarities of our food and wine tradition to works of architecture, art and design; from the selected tourist itineraries to the best restaurants, their gourmet cooking and the Italian Lifestyle on the whole."

Many thanks to Michela @ Besanopoli!
