For this special panettone, Filippi combines their signature dough with bright candied lemon peel and sweet white chocolate. As it bakes, the creamy chocolate melts into the soft, velvety crumb, perfectly balancing the tart cubes of lemon. Even the lemon-yellow packaging hints at the vibrant flavor inside.

A holiday tradition for those who grew up in Italy or in Italian-American households. Classic with candied orange peel and raisins.Panettone has a long history and many stories of its creation. We particularly like the legend of the court of the Sforzas, whereby the court cook had no cake to offer on Christmas. Instead the guests were served a sweet bread baked by a kitchen boy named Toni, and in praise the bread was named after him.

Panettone dough rises over several days to achieve the soft yet stranded texture. This long curing of the dough, with the addition of dried or candied fruit brings forth a wonderful texture and fragrance.Panettone is served for dessert, often with trays laden with cookies, torrone and panforte. Some prefer it on the table at brunch. Later in the season, use the last of it for the best French Toast you have ever had.

This supple, buttery brioche cake has a cloud-like crumb of rich yellow color, reflecting the quality of the free-range eggs Filippi uses. The dough is made utilizing the 40+ year-old mother and the finest ingredients: citrus peeled by hand then slowly candied, selected flours, fresh butter, whole milk delivered daily, and local Italian honey.
