According to the old witnesses, the recipe of the Spisigona cake was created in the first years of the II world war. At that time, this cake represents the main dish of the country gastronomy of Gragnano Trebbiense village.<\/p>\n

The name of\u00a0 Torta Spisigona<\/h3>\n

Its name comes from its characteristic shape, typical pinched dough, in Piacenza dialect\u00a0 “spisigoni”. In peasant tradinion, the cake was often the main meal for the farmers, who were used to bring it to fields, due to its high protein and energy value.<\/p>\n

The Festival
\n<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The Festival of the Spisigona cake was organised for many years by the Pro Loco Association of Gragnano, in occasion of the village fair dedicated to Baby Virgin Mary (on the 8th September).
\nIn 1993 a group of volunteers, friends of the Mcl Group in Gragnano Trebbiense, decided to organise again the event.<\/p>\n

The DE.CO Recognition<\/h3>\n

In 2015 the Gragnano Trebbiense Municipality gave to the Spisigona cake the De.Co mark.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":16869,"template":"","territorio":[936],"categorie_enogastronomia":[1059,968,967],"class_list":["post-47440","enogastronomia","type-enogastronomia","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","territorio-val-trebbia-en","categorie_enogastronomia-municipal-denomination-de-co","categorie_enogastronomia-recipes","categorie_enogastronomia-typical-products"],"acf":{"contatti_iat":[{"contatto_iat":"telephone","valore":"+39 0523 788444"}],"aziende":"","tecniche_tipiche":"","origini_storiche":"","ingredients":"","iat":33743,"localita":32611,"ingredienti":"
