Coco Za’faran

What if… somewhere between the universal genius of Leonardo da Vinci and the mystical rediscoverer Marsilio Ficino, the Italian Renaissance had given birth to a chef steeped in mystery and tales of travel, who, following in the footsteps of Marco Polo, had traveled the world to create his magnum opus—a forbidden fruit or an elixir of life, a perfect synthesis of earthly pleasures and mystical aspiration?

That transcendent delight could very well have been Coco Za’faran.

Sicilian almonds, Iranian saffron, vanilla from the distant Americas, and coconut from Melanesia bring together the four corners of the world in a single, delicious caramelized cookie.
