With a minimum of 32% cocoa, it is naturally sweet yet wonderfully balanced, offering delicate notes of caramel, white flowers and fresh cream, together with a subtle savory nuance that keeps the chocolate fresh and elegant.

Toscano Latte holds an important place within the Amedei collection as the chocolate that established the house's approach to fine milk chocolate.
Its quality has also received significant recognition in Italy. In 2022, Compagnia del Cioccolato awarded Toscano Latte its twentieth-anniversary prize, recognizing it as the best Italian milk chocolate.
Amedei Toscano Latte elevates milk chocolate through exceptional ingredients, balance and texture. Creamy and naturally sweet, yet nuanced enough to reveal caramel, floral and subtly savory characteristics, it demonstrates that milk chocolate can possess every bit as much refinement as fine dark chocolate.
It is an exceptionally approachable introduction to the world of Amedei Toscana and an excellent choice for anyone who appreciates luxurious, silky milk chocolate.
Toscano Latte's creamy, caramel character makes it particularly well suited to Vin Santo, Tawny Port, aged rum and Cognac.
For something lighter, pair it with Moscato d'Asti or an aromatic dessert wine, while coffee lovers will find its creamy character particularly enjoyable alongside espresso or cappuccino.
