Seggiano 200g Fig Ball

The Seggiano 200g Fig Ball is a traditional Calabrian delicacy made from plump, sun-dried Dottato figs that are soaked, slow-baked, hand-shaped, and wrapped in fig leaves. Naturally sweet and soft with deep caramel and liquorice flavours, this artisanal treat pairs beautifully with cheese, making it a must-have for any gourmet cheese board.


Key Features

  • Authentic handmade speciality from Calabria, Italy

  • Made from 100% Dottato figs – naturally sweet, soft, and full of flavour

  • Slow-baked and hand-shaped before being wrapped in fig leaves for a rich, traditional finish

  • Perfect pairing with soft cheeses like dolce pecorino, ricotta, or provolone piccante

  • Vegan and natural – made entirely from figs with no added sugar or preservatives

  • Ideal for cheese boards, desserts, and gifting


Product Description

The Seggiano Fig Ball celebrates the art of traditional Calabrian fig making. Using only juicy Dottato figs, a prized southern Italian variety, the figs are first sun-dried to enhance their natural sweetness before being slow-baked in their own juices. Each fig ball is then hand-shaped and wrapped in fig leaves, giving it a distinctive appearance and earthy aroma.

The result is a dense, soft, and aromatic treat with notes of caramel, honey, and liquorice, offering a true taste of rural Calabria. Delicious sliced and served with soft dolce pecorino, ricotta, or provolone piccante, it also makes a wonderful accompaniment to ice cream, nuts, or after-dinner cheese platters.

Made with just one ingredient — figs — this simple yet indulgent delicacy is 100% vegan, naturally sweet, and free from artificial additives. A perfect gourmet gift or addition to festive hampers.
