Colomba – The Italian Easter Cake

Posted in | News

We’ve just got Christmas out the way and now Easter is only round the corner.  

 

To celebrate, we will be stocking a delicious range of Colomba, the traditional Italian Easter cake, made for us by our producer in Piemonte. 

 

Colomba

 

The Colomba is a light cake with candied peel and a crunchy almond crust.  It is similar in texture to a panettone, but baked in the shape of a dove symbolising peace. 

 

 Traditionally served at the end of the meal, the cake is just as tasty with a cup of tea at anytime
