Tre Marie Crispy Wafers with Milk Cream, 200g

Tre Marie Crispy Wafers with Milk Cream Filling come from Le Tre Marie, the historic Milanese bakery best known for its panettone, pandoro and colomba. Alongside their traditional festive baking, they make a range of everyday snacks, and this is one of them: small, crisp wafer cubes layered with a light, sweet milk cream filling. It's a simple, old-fashioned kind of treat - the sort of thing you'd find in an Italian kitchen cupboard rather than on a special-occasion table.

They're for the moments in between meals - with an espresso mid-morning, tucked into a lunchbox, or as something sweet alongside afternoon tea. The wafer stays properly crisp against the milk cream filling, so a small handful goes a long way without feeling heavy, and they travel well if you want something sweet to take with you.

Why we love it:

• Made by Le Tre Marie, the historic Milanese bakery best known for panettone, pandoro and colomba
  
• Crisp, cube-shaped wafers with a light milk cream filling - simple, without being one-note
  
• Part of an everyday snacking range, so it's a nice change from Le Tre Marie's more familiar Christmas bakes
  
• A good size for sharing, or keeping in the cupboard for whenever a small sweet treat is needed
  

How to use:

• Eat straight from the bag alongside a coffee or tea, as they're intended
  
• Crumble a few over vanilla ice cream or a bowl of yoghurt for some crunch
  
• Pack a handful into a lunchbox or bag for a sweet treat that won't melt or crush easily
