This, dense, fabulous, sometimes rich spiced “bread” is sought by many, the world over. The recipes are kept secret by the Siena bakers, and each one is different, yet all share the same hard to resist wonderful flavor filled chewy “spiced” bread. Gorgeous to share ... or just eat yourself. Like the Panettone, once you try it, it says the holidays are here!

Just wanted to send a quick note to say that I really love how you write about food. I love the mix of storytelling and passion that comes through in the narrative, as well as the practical advice on preparation. I’m sure it takes time to produce such content, but it does not go unnoticed.
