The Panforte Margherita was prepared for the first time in 1879 on the occasion of a visit to Siena of queen Margherita to see the Palio. It was the occasion to present a Panforte that better mirrored the evolution of the taste and preference of consumers.
In 2014, the Panforte Margherita became Panforte di Siena IGP after earning the prestigious European certification.
