A Classic Panettone in the Perfect Gift Size
Wrapped by hand in glossy paper and finished with a ribbon, this smaller version of Albertengo’s Tradizionale Classico Panettone is a slice of pure Italian holiday joy. Following the classic Milanese recipe, the dough is naturally leavened and enriched with butter, eggs, and candied orange peel. Each loaf rises slowly to create an airy, golden crumb that’s dotted with raisins and kissed with bright citrus. The result is a tender, buttery cake with a light sweetness and just the right amount of fruit—elegant, fragrant, and impossible to resist.
Why It’s Special
Handcrafted by Albertengo, a fourth-generation bakery from Piedmont, this panettone honors the traditions that made Italy’s Christmas bread famous. The natural sourdough starter gives it an exquisite texture and aroma, while a delicate glaze of almonds and Piedmont hazelnuts adds a subtle crunch on top. In its charming half-kilo size, it’s ideal for smaller gatherings, hostess gifts, or cozy mornings at home with coffee and cream.

FAQ
How should I store my panettone?
Keep in a cool, dry place. Once opened, wrap tightly or store in an airtight container.

Unopened, panettone stays fresh for several months thanks to its natural leavening. Once cut, enjoy within 5–7 days.

Yes! This cake freezes beautifully. Slice into portions, wrap well, and thaw at room temperature.
How should I eat my panettone?
This smaller loaf is perfect for toasting and serving with butter, jam, or mascarpone. It’s also lovely in bread pudding or alongside espresso or dessert wine.
What makes Albertengo panettone different from supermarket panettone?
Albertengo uses natural fermentation, rich butter and eggs, and carefully sourced fruits — creating a cake that’s softer, lighter, and far more aromatic than mass-produced versions.
