Authentic Panettone in Tin (Original)

Product Information

We’re really proud of our collection of panettone at Sous Chef. We carefully select each product, and are looking for the best quality ingredients and authentic baking methods. Try layering up your panettone in a tiramisu or trifle. The bread is particularly tasty soaked in brandy, masala or other sweet wines. Whisk the sugar and eggs together in a separate bowl until well incorporated and light. Stir in melted butter, Marsala wine and vanilla extract. Toast a slice of panettone and serve it with cheese at the end of a meal. The buttery sweetness is fantastic with tangy, crumbly cheese like a premium mature Cheddar. Traditionally, Italians eat a slice of panettone at breakfast. Slice yourself a pillowy piece of panettone and enjoy with a strong espresso first thing, for the true Italian experience.

Warm your panettone in the oven, then cut into individual portions and serve with a dash of double cream and a dollop of stewed fruit for a real winter warmer. Spread a rich and smooth nut butter over your panettone for a very special afternoon treat. Coffee cream and pistachio cream from Fiasconaro are just the thing.
