9Pandoro
Similar to Panettone, Pandoro hails from Verona and is a lighter, fruitless alternative. Its name translates to “golden bread,” referring to its rich golden color and soft, buttery texture. Pandoro is typically dusted with powdered sugar before being served, creating a snowy effect that mirrors the winter season. Unlike Panettone, it doesn’t contain any dried fruits, making it a favorite for those who prefer a simpler, sweeter flavor.
Why Try It: Pandoro’s rich, buttery flavor makes it an irresistible Christmas dessert. It’s especially perfect for those who prefer a dessert that’s not laden with fruits or nuts but still indulgent in flavor.
