Turrón production has defined this pocket-sized inland town in Alicante province for generations — Xixona gives its name to one of the two classic varieties of the Spanish nougat confection, alongside the Alicante variety, and remains a centre of its manufacture today. Set in the hills of the Campo de Alicante in Spain's Valencian Community, the town sits within a wider region ringed by UNESCO World Heritage sites.
