Made with hand-selected almonds, candied fruit prepared using traditional techniques, honey, sugar, and spices, its recipe is set out in the production specifications of the association that protects Panforte and Ricciarelli di Siena.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Margherita variant stands out from black Panforte for its lighter dough, its sweeter, more delicate spice profile, and its powdered sugar coating.
