Toschi Amarena Black Cherries in Syrup – Premium Italian Cocktail & Dessert Cherries

Heritage and flavor you can savor

Toschi Amarena Black Cherries in Syrup bring a storied Italian craft to your kitchen. Born from a postwar passion in Vignola, Italy, the Toschi story began when the founders first dipped local cherries in alcohol to preserve them. Today, Amarena cherries are hand-picked, pitted, and sweetened, then packed in a glossy syrup that carries a refined balance of sweet and tart. The result is a gourmet option that elevates drinks, desserts, and even savory plates without relying on artificial flavors.

Gourmet versatility

These cherries offer a sensory experience with a syrupy texture that clings to a spoon, a nuanced depth of flavor, and a dramatic visual appeal. Use them to transform everyday recipes into moments of café- or bistro-quality flavor.

• Cocktail garnish: elevate Old Fashioned, Manhattan, or signature mixed drinks with real Italian cherries and a glossy syrup.
• Dessert topping: crown ice cream, Belgian waffles, or zeppole di San Giuseppe with a vivid cherry glow.
