N.° I
Cuori Prada B · Da inzuppo

Dry heart-shaped biscuits of the Trentino valleys — rustic, long-keeping, dunked at breakfast.

valli trentine
N.° II
Zelten C · Cugino

The dried-fruit Christmas loaf of both Trentino and Südtirol. Not a biscuit at all — but gravitationally central to the regional Christmas tray, and the boundary case that shows where the family ends.

Natale · PAT
N.° III
Weihnachtskekse del Südtirol C · Cugino

Spitzbuben, Vanillekipferl, Lebkuchen: the Austrian-lineage Christmas cookies of the German-speaking valleys. Once-baked, and the atlas’s northern frontier.

The atlas cites Italian primary and regional sources throughout. Claims resting on tradition rather than documents are phrased as claims; entries awaiting confirmation say so on their face.
