Characteristics of the Sorrento Biscuit

The clay - The soil, rich in clay with volcanic silica and pumice, is a distinctive feature beneath Sorrento's famous citrus groves.

Porosity - This clay gives the Sorrento biscuit a notable component of porosity.

The base of the oven must be porous to heat up quickly and retain heat for a long time, thus ensuring a uniform and pleasant heat release.

The fundamental difference between the Biscotto di Sorrento and other types of bricks on the market, such as the Casapulla biscuit, lies in the ability of the Biscotto di Sorrento to prevent the bottom of the pizza from burning, thanks to its ability to absorb moisture from the dough.

Artisanal production - At Forni Aversa, we rigorously follow an ancient tradition of artisanal production.

Since Sorrento biscuits are handmade, they may sometimes exhibit variations in size of just a few millimeters, including burns, chipping, surface cracks, or other anomalies that are characteristic of a handcrafted product.
