Traditional Delight:
Italian Christmas Panettone

Each country has its own traditional Christmas dishes, cakes and pastries, and the panettone from Italy is probably one of the most well-known Christmas treats across the globe.

Orange peel soaked in a sweet liqueur, lemon zest and dried raisins are all important ingredients of the panettone, which oozes with aroma of egg and butter. It was said that in the old days, most people could not afford expensive ingredients like fruits and butter, so Christmas was the only time they were willing to splurge on baking a cake, and the panettone has become a symbol of lavishness and a traditional Christmas treat. If you want to share a loaf of sweetness with your beloved friends and family, choose from a wide selection of panettone from city’super!
