Migone - Firenze

We stumbled on Migone looking for gifts to bring home. The shop sells all manner of sweets from nougat to chocolates all delightfully displayed and packaged. The boxes in the shape of the Duomo were especially captivating. Migone has been in business since 1906 so that says a lot about the quality of their goods.

Quaint little candy shop by the Duomo. The window display was so attractive and colorful that we stumbled right in after walking around the Duomo. We bought some panforte and marzipan bars to bring back home to friends and family. But we ended up eating them all ourselves! So we kept coming back for more. It’s a family owned and ran business. They don’t ship nor do they have a website. So be sure to stop by Migone to satisfy your sweet cravings. You won’t be disappointed.

I have been coming to this candy shop for almost 40 years and I believe they make the best chocolates in all of Italy. The handmade candies are a bit expensive but if you value quality over quantity then this is the store for you. I particularly enjoy the chocolate covered orange peel, but everything is great. And if your a fan of marzipan then you will love it here.

Traditional Florentine pastry, here you will find some (approximately vegan) Tuscan sweets, panpepato and cocoa-containing panfort. I bought them both and tried to be so amazing.

I am not sure that this place has a reason to be listed on happy kuh as vegan options are very limited and not clearly marked. for example, I saw two different types of cacao panforte, one in the ingredient list had honey and the other had it not, and they were both placed at the same place! also every piece of panpepato I saw had honey in it, so they probably changed the recipe when this place was first checked. Anyway, I have aprikosen and Cacao patch, both were vegan (check the labels! and they tasted beautiful, aprikosen was my favorite. it is also very expensive. updated by previous review on 2020-03-01
