Chef Emiddio Isernia's award-winning fresh Italian Panettone are now available at  Cadine this holiday season!

Made fresh to order locally in Vancouver, his Panettone is handmade with natural yeast originally dating back more than 70 years. The long and slow proofing process of 36 hours allows for development of nuanced flavours and aromas. Enriched with selected grains, premium butter, candied fruit and Madagascar Vanilla, he uses only the best ingredients to yield a product that is a true ode to Italian artisanship and tradition.

The tender crumb dissolves in your mouth—paradoxically rich and ethereal at the same time. Featherweight in texture and rich in flavour, this treat is the ultimate gift this holiday season. 

The feed of “lievito madre” (mother yeast) daily and each one of the 12 steps is executed with the utmost level of care and attention. Meticulous attention to detail guarantees the impeccable production of our masterpiece. Due to the lievito madre and the long, detailed, production method, our panettone can last up to 1 month at room temperature (even longer for our Limoncello Panettone), making it a perfect dessert to have and gift at Christmas.

How to Serve: Their panettone is best served at room temperature. The specific prolonged method of crafting allows it to be preserved for longer periods of time, so that immediate refrigeration is not needed. Traditionally, panettone is best served with coffee, tea, or gelato (or ice cream). It also pairs very well with eggnog and dessert wines such as ice wines or passito (an Italian wine made from partially sundried grapes).

Ingredients: Soft wheat flour, natural yeast, butter, ghee butter, eggs yolks, granulated sugar, orange flavedo zest, cedro candied cubes, orange candied cubes, sun-dried raisins, Madagascar vanilla, malt extract, water, salt.

Shelf Life: Panettone Classico has a prolonged shelf life of 31 days. Store in the bag and box provided.
