Overview
The Vergani Cannoli Panettone – Sicily Trip is a gourmet fusion of two iconic Italian desserts: the Milanese panettone and the Sicilian cannoli. Crafted by the renowned Milanese bakery Vergani, this indulgent holiday cake features a light, naturally-leavened dough filled or studded with cannoli-inspired sweet filling—think ricotta-cream notes, chocolate chips, and Sicilian citrus zest. It blends tradition with innovation for a festive treat ideally suited to dessert lovers seeking a layered culinary experience.
Quality & Sourcing
Vergani has adhered to its artisanal roots since 1944, employing natural sourdough starters and a long, slow leaven process. The Cannoli Panettone – Sicily Trip is part of their “Sicily Trip” collection, which celebrates the flavors and authenticity of Sicily within the panettone format. While the exact ingredient list for this variation isn’t widely published, it can be assumed to use premium Italian wheat flour, free-range eggs, fresh butter, natural yeast, and high-quality fillings that reflect Sicilian pastry tradition.

Pair it with espresso, sweet wines (like Moscato d’Asti or Vin Santo), or enrich it with a scoop of gelato or pastry cream. The cannoli-inspired twist makes it especially appealing for guests who appreciate traditional sweets with inventive flair.
