1.1 pounds 500g (small) - Italy

A Classic in a Perfectly Giftable Size
Hand-wrapped in glossy paper and tied with a festive ribbon, this smaller version of Albertengo’s beloved Antica Ricetta Panettone carries all the warmth and tradition of the original in a more intimate size. Made from the same centuries-old family recipe, it’s rich with butter and eggs, filled with raisins and candied citron, and baked until golden and aromatic. Light, soft, and delicately sweet, it’s the perfect cake to share—or to keep for yourself with morning coffee or a cozy evening tea.

Why It’s Special
The Albertengo family—fourth-generation master bakers from Piedmont—create this panettone using their naturally leavened dough, fermented slowly for flavor and texture. The “Antica Ricetta,” or “ancient recipe,” honors the original style of Italian panettone—unadorned, buttery, and beautifully simple. This smaller loaf is ideal for gifting or for smaller gatherings, bringing the same authentic taste in a charming, half-kilo size.

Limited in quantity and made with the same care as its larger counterpart, it’s a wonderful way to savor true Italian craftsmanship during the holidays.
