A twist on the classic Colomba, filled with milk & dark chocolate pieces, topped with a hazelnut icing, finished with almonds and sugar crystals. Another much loved favourite from Carluccio's online Italian deli.
Colomba, meaning Dove, was born in the 1930’s when a bakery in Milan wanted to offer Panettone at another time of the year. It was baked in a dove shaped mould and became an immediate success, becoming the most popular Easter cake throughout Italy.
Given as a symbol of peace & love, Colomba is traditionally served after a meal on Easter Sunday or as part of the Easter Monday picnic.
Our Colomba is baked by our legendary Panettone Producers in Piemonte using all the same meticulous methods. The dough is proved twice making the Colomba soft and fluffy, the ingredients sit within the dough during this time allowing the flavours to blend and develop. Just like our Panettone.
Once baked, they are hung upside down to cool, wrapped & hand finished with our signature tag & a colourful ribbons.
