The great unknown of Christmas"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p><\/p>\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/casamira.es\/en\/shop\/\">classic nougats<\/a>, hard and soft, chocolate, hazelnut, and even coconut, invade our shopping cart, our table, and our stomach every Christmas. However, the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/casamira.es\/en\/product\/marzipan-nougat\/\">snow nougat<\/a><\/strong> has always been there, silent, discreet, almost invisible. Very few know it, and there are hardly any confectioneries where you can find it because they have fallen into oblivion of the general public. <strong>Snow nougat<\/strong> does not appear in advertisements, it does not have versions with truffle or quinoa, and it does not usually occupy the covers of gastronomic magazines. But if you have ever tasted it, you remember it. Because it is one of those sweets that stay in your memory, like the Christmas carols your grandmother used to sing.     <\/p>\n\n<p>At <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/casamira.es\/en\/\">Casa Mira<\/a><\/strong>we have been making turr\u00f3n de Nieve for more than 180 years, that is why, for many, it is the most authentic of all. If you don&#8217;t know it, we are going to introduce it to you in this article. And, if you have already tried it, get ready to fall in love again.  <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>A nougat with a winter name<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p>The name is not casual: <strong>&#8220;turr\u00f3n de nieve&#8221;<\/strong> refers to its white color, its delicate appearance and, why not say it, to the nostalgic air it gives off. It is a sweet that <strong>does not contain honey or eggs<\/strong>, unlike the nougat from Alicante or Jijona. What it does have is the essential: <strong>ground raw almonds, lemon zest, cinnamon and sugar<\/strong>, similar to a delicate marzipan. It is so called because of its whitish color and purity, and is typical of Jijona, although not very well known outside, offering a delicate and aromatic flavor, often with pieces of candied fruit.     <\/p>\n\n<p>The result is a <strong>white, fine, smooth<\/strong> paste <strong>with an elegant flavor and slightly earthy texture<\/strong> that melts in the mouth like a snowflake. It is one of the few nougats that does not seek to dazzle, but to comfort. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Where was the snow nougat born?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"788\" src=\"https:\/\/casamira.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/turron-de-nieve-2-1024x788.jpg\" alt=\"snow nougat 2\" class=\"wp-image-25619\" style=\"width:396px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/casamira.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/turron-de-nieve-2-1024x788.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/casamira.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/turron-de-nieve-2-300x231.jpg 300w, https:\/\/casamira.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/turron-de-nieve-2-768x591.jpg 768w, https:\/\/casamira.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/turron-de-nieve-2-655x504.jpg 655w, https:\/\/casamira.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/turron-de-nieve-2-64x49.jpg 64w, https:\/\/casamira.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/turron-de-nieve-2.jpg 1040w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p>Although it does not have an official &#8220;denomination of origin&#8221;, <strong>turr\u00f3n de nieve<\/strong> is part of the <strong>traditional Christmas confectionery of Madrid<\/strong> and other areas of central Spain. In the case of <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/casamira.es\/en\/contact\/\">Casa Mira<\/a><\/strong>it has been present on our counters since <strong>the middle of the 19th century<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n<p>It was originally a simpler way of preparing nougat, without the need to cook honey or whip egg whites. It was perfect for those who wanted a <strong>Christmas sweet<\/strong> with few ingredients, but with almonds as the main ingredient. And yes, it was also a cheaper nougat, which made it very popular in times of scarcity.  <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Why has it fallen into oblivion?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p>Good question. Maybe because it has no brightness or flashy colors. Maybe because its flavor is more subtle and less immediate than that of other sweeter turrones. Or because it is hard to find: not all confectioneries make it, much less with traditional methods.   <\/p>\n\n<p>At Casa Mira, however, we continue to make it <strong>by hand, with patience, with good marcona almonds and without haste<\/strong>. Because we believe that there are sweets that should not disappear. And because there are customers who, every December, come exclusively for it.  <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How do you eat snow nougat?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"952\" height=\"657\" src=\"https:\/\/casamira.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Foto-SERV-EMPRESAS.png\" alt=\"handmade snow nougat\" class=\"wp-image-18327\" style=\"width:388px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/casamira.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Foto-SERV-EMPRESAS.png 952w, https:\/\/casamira.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Foto-SERV-EMPRESAS-300x207.png 300w, https:\/\/casamira.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Foto-SERV-EMPRESAS-768x530.png 768w, https:\/\/casamira.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Foto-SERV-EMPRESAS-655x452.png 655w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 952px) 100vw, 952px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p>Unlike hard nougat, which must be attacked with determination, snow nougat is easy to cut. It is served in small portions and is perfect to accompany a <strong>black coffee, a soft infusion or even a glass of aniseed liqueur<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n<p>As it is not excessively sweet, it is ideal for those who are looking for a <strong>more balanced Christmas dessert<\/strong>. It is also suitable for people who do not tolerate eggs, as it is egg-free. <\/p>\n\n<p>And, although it is sometimes presented as a tablet, at Casa Mira we also serve it as <strong>a ball wrapped in tissue paper<\/strong>, as it used to be in the old days.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Craftsmanship, every step of the way<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p>The secret of the snow nougat is in the <strong>texture and quality of the almonds<\/strong>. At <strong>Casa Mira<\/strong> we use <strong>marcona almonds<\/strong>, the finest, peeled and ground to a smooth paste. Then it is mixed with sugar and worked until the right density is achieved. There are no preservatives, colorings or stabilizers. Only natural ingredients and expert hands.    <\/p>\n\n<p>Once the mixture is ready, it is molded and left to rest, so that it acquires that unique consistency: neither hard nor soft, but a kind of more delicate and aromatic marzipan. When cut, it crumbles slightly, and that is a good sign: it means that it has not been caked with chemicals or pressed by machine. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>To give as a gift or not to share<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/casamira.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/turron-nieve-packaging.png\" alt=\"nougat snow packaging\" class=\"wp-image-5409\" style=\"width:403px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/casamira.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/turron-nieve-packaging.png 600w, https:\/\/casamira.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/turron-nieve-packaging-500x500.png 500w, https:\/\/casamira.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/turron-nieve-packaging-100x100.png 100w, https:\/\/casamira.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/turron-nieve-packaging-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/casamira.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/turron-nieve-packaging-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/casamira.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/turron-nieve-packaging-75x75.png 75w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p>Looking for a special nougat, different, with history? Snow nougat is perfect to surprise at the Christmas table. It has that air of a <strong>hidden jewel<\/strong>, a sweet that only those who know how to make it know. And that gives it a special value.   <\/p>\n\n<p>In addition, since it does not contain egg or honey, it is <strong>an interesting option for people with certain food restrictions<\/strong> (although we always recommend checking the composition with us if there is any specific allergy).<\/p>\n\n<p>On our trays, next to the classics from Jijona and Alicante, the snow nougat <strong>shines for its discretion<\/strong>. But there it is, like the elegant guest who doesn&#8217;t say much, but when it speaks, everyone listens. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Have you ever tried it?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p>If you didn&#8217;t know this nougat, this may be the year to discover it. And if you&#8217;ve tried it once, you&#8217;ll surely know what we&#8217;re talking about. Not everything at Christmas has to be noisy, modern or reinvented: there are pleasures that remain because, simply, <strong>they are well done<\/strong>.  <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Where to find it?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p>In our store in the center of Madrid, the <strong>snow nougat<\/strong> is one of those treasures that sells out fast. You can come and get it, or call us to make a reservation. You can also include it in your online orders. Ask for it, it is sometimes hidden among so much Christmas variety.   <\/p>\n\n<p>At Casa Mira, we&#8217;ve been <strong>doing it as we always have<\/strong>, for more than a century. And we don&#8217;t plan to stop doing it. <\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-a89b3969 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/casamira.es\/en\/product\/marzipan-nougat\/\">I want it!<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The classic nougats, hard and soft, chocolate, hazelnut, and even coconut, invade our shopping cart, our table, and our stomach every Christmas.
