Unsweetened Sicilian Almond Paste – 100% Sicilian Almonds

Pure Unsweetened Sicilian Almond Paste

Experience the authentic flavor of Sicily with Giannetti Artisans Unsweetened Sicilian Almond Paste, made exclusively from 100% Pizzuta d’Avola almonds grown in southeastern Sicily.

Unlike conventional sweetened almond pastes, our artisanal paste contains no added sugar, water, palm oil, preservatives, or artificial ingredients. It is simply pure ground almonds and their naturally occurring oils, offering a rich, concentrated almond flavor.

The Pizzuta d’Avola almond is celebrated for its distinctive elongated shape, delicate sweetness, and refined aroma. Traditionally cultivated in the Avola region, these exceptional almonds are prized in Sicilian confectionery and pastry making.

Traditionally Stone-Ground for Rich Flavor

Our Sicilian almonds are naturally sun-dried and stone-ground into a thick, creamy paste using traditional artisan methods.

Because the paste contains no emulsifiers or stabilizers, the almonds’ natural oils may separate and rise to the surface. This is normal and does not indicate spoilage. Simply stir thoroughly before using.

The consistency is naturally dense and concentrated, rather than powdered or pourable like almond milk.

Perfect for Sicilian Almond Milk, Granita & Desserts

This versatile unsweetened Sicilian almond paste provides an authentic base for homemade almond milk, Sicilian granita, gelato, pastries, and other traditional almond desserts.

To prepare almond milk, stir the paste thoroughly, blend with cold water, and sweeten to taste with sugar, honey, or your preferred sweetener. Adjust the amount of water for your desired flavor and consistency, then serve chilled.

For traditional pastries, the paste can also be incorporated into recipes that call for a concentrated almond base.
