Sassello is a green area of the Ligurian Apennines that has claimed its confectionery vocation since the mid nineteenth century with the handmade production of the traditional Amaretto Morbido. Augusto Cavallero – founder of La Sassellese – invented the Canestrellino, a mini delicacy that is eaten in one bite and that is the smaller version of the Canestrello, a local sweet of the Ligurian tradition. He also deserves credit for introducing the flow-pack packaging of the Amaretto in the 1970’s.
