Turrones de casoy are native delicacies of Pampanga which are introduced in the Philippines during the Spanish colonial time. These sweets are basically made out of nougat slivers, crushed cashew nuts, and honey then wrapped with wafer-like rice paper sheet. It is famous for its unique taste; the edible wrapper compliments the sweet, crunchy, and nutty filling. These heavenly treat is commonly served to the visitors with coffee or tea.

The hard and crunchy filling of Turrones de Casoy symbolizes the common kapampangan family which is intact and bounded with love and faith in God. It is also the reflection of how the people here tried to strive for survival during the eruption of Mt. Pinatubo; Riteneans kept the recipe by sharing it with the succeeding generations to keep the family tradition alive. It is not only unique because of its delightful taste but also because of its story which took part in history.
