In the following years the company enjoyed great success, making 350 different types of biscuits and exporting its products all over the world; this ambition was well delivered by the brand logo, representing a steam boat which was typical used as part of the lithography on the decorated tin boxes.According to legend, almost three centuries ago, the Cardinal of Milan unexpectedly visited the town of Saronno in Italy. To honor him, two young lovers, Giuseppe and Osolina, quickly baked up a mixture of sugar, apricot kernels, and egg whites, creating crisp, airy cookies with an unusual bittersweet flavor which they wrapped in pairs to symbolize their love. The Cardinal was delighted and blessed the young couple, who married and lived happily ever after. Since 1718 this ancient and secret recipe has been preserved by the Lazzaroni family.
