From our passion for the tradition, they are born doughs with an inebriating scent of the past, aromi  that taste of home, of domestic affections, of lived kitchen, of flavour that fill the air and make it "alive". These are the memories take life from the Gaetana tradition of the typical Christmas sweets that melt gastronomic Neapolitan  culture and deeper roots distant in the time.

So, we hand down into the flavours of our Christmas sweets all the "artisanal knowledge" that is rispect for the tradition and passion for the good things.

How tradition wants, our Sciuscelle are covered with "naspro", an icing made of cocoa, water and sugar, worked by hand, that wraps and soften the biscuit.

In the same way, Mostaccioli are wrappen by a stronger shell that hides into a sweet and soft stuffing of quince jam.

The "hot" cacao aroma and the scent of pisto, a mix of cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves, melt to the "sweet" honey perfume give to our Christmas holidays the past flavour.
