Flour, eggs, sugar
These typical biscuits from the small town of Serrenti in lower Campidano are traditional fare for teething toddlers: each bite is a little toothsome conquest!
Their playful shapes - cockerels, minute baskets, Catherine-wheels - are equally joyful.
On the other hand, they also play a more stable and seasonal rôle as Easter delicacies par excellence which each family offers
its visitors.
These feathery, crumbly little cakes with their patiently-glazed, filmy coating of sugar become even lighter after baking.
