San Marco dei Cavoti

San Marco dei Cavoti has served as a hill town in Campania’s Sannio area since the 14th century. It lies in the inland Apennine landscape of the Province of Benevento, far from the coastal cities that often shape visitors’ image of Campania. The town’s second name recalls the Gavots, settlers of Provençal origin associated with its medieval foundation. Its best-known local speciality is croccantino, a crisp confection of hazelnuts and sugar traditionally coated in dark chocolate. First made here by confectioner Innocenzo Borrillo in 1891, it remains central to the town’s identity.
