Why You’ll Love This

Luscious candied pear and dark chocolate make this Italian panettone a particularly irresistible holiday indulgence. Its airy, buttery crumb balances fruity sweetness with the satisfying depth of chocolate, creating a beautiful dessert to share.

What Makes It Special

Made with naturally leavened sourdough through Loison’s traditional, unhurried process, this generous 1kg panettone is enriched with candied pear and dark chocolate pieces rather than the raisins found in classic panettone. The contrast is elegant and wonderfully aromatic.

Tasting Notes

Soft, golden and tender, with notes of butter, ripe pear and rich cocoa. Sweet candied fruit and dark chocolate create a balanced, lingering finish.

Perfect Pairings

Pair with espresso, cappuccino, Vin Santo or a glass of sparkling Moscato. A dollop of mascarpone, lightly whipped cream or fresh poached pears makes a lovely accompaniment.

Serving Ideas

Serve thick slices at room temperature for dessert or holiday brunch. Warm gently to soften the chocolate, or toast leftover slices for a luxurious breakfast. It also makes exceptional French toast.
