About this deal

EK: “This is a pretty good, very classic panettone. It’s fruit heavy but it needs more citrus; there’s enough peel, but it’s missing the citrus oil. It’s very similar to the Tesco panettone, but it’s better and cheaper.” Score 7.5/10

wheat, water), rehydrated whole milk powder, fresh egg yolk*, emulsifiers: mono- and diglycerides of acidsSpread a rich and smooth nut butter over your panettone for a very special afternoon treat. Coffee cream and pistachio cream from Fiasconaro are just the thing. BE: “It’s very small for such a big box. I feel a bit underwhelmed. The cherries on top look nice, but I really don’t want the chocolate – I want to see the top. It’s well filled, there’s a good distribution of cherries and chocolate chunks in there, and I like that there’s a bit of alcohol to cut through the sweetness. Do I want a big slice? No.” Score 5.5/10 Maybe, in the faraway 1902, Master Confectioner Tiziano Golfetti was feeling this kind of ancient atmosphere, as he opened his first workshop, naming it after Borsari gate! From his industrious and able hands came out soft pandoro and delightful panettone and vanilla flavored cakes with a delicate creamy filling and covered with fine chocolates. Furthermore, to make them even more attractive, he put is nice products into lovely painted boxes. EK: “It’s quite dry and the least rich dough we’ve tried. The filling is better than Aldi’s but it’s still too sweet – all you’re left with at the end is an artificial taste. It needs some citrus peel to balance things out.” Score 5/10 Traditionally, Italians eat a slice of panettone at breakfast. Slice yourself a pillowy piece of panettone and enjoy with a strong espresso first thing, for the true Italian experience.

EK: “It looks like a Ferrero Rocher. The chocolate is quite thin, which I’m happy about; the caramel is so cinnamon-y and there’s so much of it; the bread is bland on its own. It’s crazy how sweet this is, it’s headache-inducing.” Score 3/10 BE: “It looks like a giant hot cross bun – they’ve put the wrong thing inside! There’s lots of plump, juicy fruit and peel in here; it’s not bad at all. This feels more like an everyday panettone. If you love hot cross buns, this is for you.” Score 6/10 Borsari's Star Shaped Pandoro has a decadent Hazelnut Cream filling and is topped with chocolate and fresh hazelnuts.EK: “To me, this is a classic: it looks sophisticated, the texture has a nice lightness to it and there are some good, big chunks of fruit. However, the dough itself is a bit bland and I would like more flavour. Overall, it’s pretty good. Score 7/10 However, its versatility has led to various adaptations, including using it as a base for desserts. Its transformation into luxurious bread and butter puddings or serving slices with a scoop of gelato has solidified its place on the dessert table. EK: “This looks like a giant doughnut; I’m worried about the crust and texture of that cream inside, which stinks. Oh, I don’t like the filling, and the bread tastes artificial. If it didn’t have that weird cream and had some peel, it would be miles better.” Score 4/10 Try using your panettone to make breadcrumbs and incorporate into a custard to make a delicious and unexpected ice cream flavour. The classic Borsari panettone is worked for 72 hours, the most important phase is the refreshment of a yeast that is always kept alive. By working it with flour and water we ensure that it remains reactive and gives softness and flavor to the product. The raisins are of Turkish origin due to their high quality of selection: the grapes are harvested manually, dried naturally in the sun and selected based on color and size. The candied lemons and oranges are always Italian and are selected through a manual process. The scorzone is chosen from the orange because it gives a lot of aroma and flavor to the product through a level of candying that better preserves and preserves the essential oils contained in the fruit. Candied lemon fruits are added to the orange and lemon, which come from South America, and, given their limited availability, give great value to the panettone.

Panettone croutons add texture and flavour to winter salads – of your bread has gone stale, simply lightly gril and scatter over your salad leaves with fresh figs, blue cheese and a glug of good dressing. Its current name "Porta Bosari" (Borsari Gate) comes from the latin expression "Bursarii" (Excise Men) who collected duties in the Middle Ages from the people that crossed the gate to enter the town.

Fiasconaro Panettone Pandorato

BE: “I want a tall panettone, which this is, but it’s just too sweet and it needs something else going on in this bread. I think chocolate panettone is for people who don’t like panettone.” Score 4.5/10
