Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about Sicilian Pistachio Cream

Yes. Our cream's strength lies in its high pistachio density (45%), providing natural protein, fiber, and healthy monounsaturated fats. This rich composition offers sustained energy and deep flavour satisfaction. Furthermore, we prioritize clean fats like Extra Virgin Olive Oil, ensuring a higher quality nutritional profile than spreads relying on hydrogenated or lower-grade oils.
Store the cream in a cool, dark place, like a pantry, to maintain its texture and colour. Refrigeration is not necessary and can cause the cream to harden slightly due to the Cocoa Butter content. If this occurs, simply leave it at room temperature for 30 minutes before serving.
