Bona Furtuna Blood Orange and Olive Oil Panettone

2.2 pound cake - Sicily, Italy

A Modern Panettone with Bright Fruitiness

When we first took a squeeze and ripped a piece out of this panettone we were excited and a little fearful. Olive oil when added to a food you don’t expect is often less than enjoyable or a nothing burger.

In this case, with the combo of Blood Orange and olive oil makes this Panettone a fun one! It is delicious, it is fun, it is different and it is special!

We have sold out always, and this year we are offering it early before it arrives, so if it peaks your taste buds pre-order now!

Created with Bona Furtuna’s organic Sicilian olive oil and candied Sicilian blood oranges, this soft and aromatic panettone captures the bright, sun-warmed flavors of Sicily. The airy, buttery crumb is made luscious with olive oil, which adds a silky richness and delicate fruitiness. Studded with tender bits of citrus, every slice feels both indulgent and refreshing—a perfect harmony of sweetness and light.

A modern take on a beloved Italian holiday cake, this panettone is bouncier than traditional butter-rich versions, while still maintaining the satisfying depth and warmth of handmade panettone. It’s wonderful with espresso or dessert wine, or toasted for breakfast with mascarpone and a drizzle of olive oil.
