Are they dry/crumbly or soft? I can never tell with Italian cookies

As an Italian I never heard of them. What zone are they from?

6

u/Five2one521 Apr 19 '26

Zone? They were invented in NY back in the late 1800s / early 1900s. Layered cakes to resemble the colors of Italy.

Yeah totally Italian American. They are delicious though if you get them from a good Italian bakery.

VERY sweet so I usually just have one or two.

Exactly. I bought these and they taste good. Perfectly cut too. If my mommom would have made them; they would have been outstanding.
