The nacatole are traditional sweets of ancient origin, of different shapes, which are prepared in the local families and pastry shops, during the Christmas period. They prepare a week before Christmas as a good sign and can not miss in the year-end dinner. They are also marketed in pastry shops. This typical sweet is consumed and marries beautifully with the classic local dessert wines similar in many ways to the Cantucci with Vinsanto. In the morning, instead, at breakfast, it associates very well with fresh milk. The area of production is the territory of the District of Locride and Piana di Gioia Tauro.
