2020 Panettone + Coffee

Panettone is an Italian type of sweet bread originally from Milan, usually prepared and enjoyed for Christmas and New Year in Western, Southern, and Southeastern Europe as well as in Latin America, Eritrea, Australia, the United Kingdom, the United States and Canada.

It has a cupola shape, usually served in wedge shapes, vertically cut.

It is made during a long process that involves curing the dough, which is acidic, similar to sourdough.

The proofing process alone takes several days, giving the cake its distinctive fluffy characteristics.

It contains candied orange, citron, and lemon zest, as well as raisins, which are added dry and not soaked.
