Where to Find Artisan Panettone in Milan - AFAR
"Protective of its panettone, this Milanese pastry shop has been baking the traditional fruitcake in a humble kitchen for over 70 years; founded in 1936 by the owners' grandparents and now run by sisters Laura and Vittoria, they hesitate to expand because changing the kitchen’s microclimate or production volume could upset the revered il lievito madre (mother yeast). Its panettone is pillowy and sweet, laced with high-quality vanilla, raisins, and chunks of candied citrus, and is made year-round—customers visit the elegant Corso Genova shop for a slice at breakfast or to enjoy pangelà, a panettone‑gelato sandwich, on warm summer nights. The sisters emphasize that artisan panettone differs from mass-produced versions in taste, aroma, and the satisfaction it provides." - Serena Renner
