Sanguinaccio dolce ('sweet blood pudding' in English) is an Italian sweet cream based on bitter dark chocolate and pig blood, recognized as a prodotto agroalimentare tradizionale (PAT) in several Italian regions.[1][2][3][4] There are local variations in the degree to which it is served warm and runny for dipping or allowed to set and formed into a pudding or cake.[5] In Naples, it is traditionally prepared for Carnival.[6] However, public sale of pig blood was banned for health reasons in 1992.[7]
