Product not certified with IGP but made with the same requirements and quality control as if it was a IGP product.


"It is not known when this craft activity began in the lands of Moncorvo. However, already in 1886 at the Universal Exhibition in Paris and, 10 years later, at the International Fair in Philadelphia, the Municipality of Torre de Moncorvo made a great impression with this product, rightly celebrated by the critics of the specialty.

Moncorvo Covered Almonds are obtained by taking the sugar to a special spot and slowly pouring it into a polished copper bowl over the almonds that are being roasted. Underneath, the copper basin is slightly heated over a gentle, constant heat.
Constant and prolonged is also the work of the woman who stirs the grains, with her fingers stuck in thimbles, so that the almonds gain their characteristic beaks. The almonds are then covered with a homogeneous layer of sugar.

Since March 2018, Covered Almonds from Moncorvo have been an IGP product, with official certification regulated by the European Union, which identifies a product originating from a certain place or region and which has a certain quality, reputation or other characteristics that can be essentially attributed to their geographical origin."


Since January 2020, Quinta da Patela has been certified to produce Covered Almonds from Moncorvo IGP.



Ingredients: Toasted Almond [peeled almond kernels (RINK FRUITS)], Sugar syrup and cinnamon [water, white sugar, cinnamon powder, egg white (EGGS)].
