Lacopina is born in the white arts training center @gustar_pistoia in honor of San Giacomo Maggiore and it presents itself as a shell-shaped focaccia, a distinctive symbol of the pilgrim, produced with integral soft wheat flour. It is a new quality product that will be distributed by the Pistoia bakers, and which will hopefully soon become a typical bread symbol of the city of Pistoia.
