Marron Glace Panettone

Overview

Vergani Marron Glacé Panettone is a refined and luxurious version of the classic Milanese holiday cake, enriched with pieces of candied chestnuts—known as marron glacé—for a rich and elegant flavor. Soft, aromatic, and delicately sweet, this artisanal panettone transforms a traditional Italian dessert into a truly indulgent gourmet experience.

Quality & Sourcing

Handcrafted in Milan by Vergani, a family-run bakery established in 1944, this panettone is made using a natural sourdough starter and a 48-hour leavening process for exceptional softness and aroma. The dough is prepared with premium ingredients including Italian wheat flour, fresh butter, free-range eggs, and natural vanilla. Pieces of marron glacé—candied chestnuts known for their tender texture and subtle sweetness—are folded into the dough, creating a beautifully balanced and festive flavor.

Tasting Notes

Delicately moist and aromatic, with a buttery crumb and gentle notes of chestnut, honey, and vanilla. The marron glacé pieces lend a melt-in-the-mouth sweetness that harmonizes perfectly with the soft texture of the panettone, offering both depth and elegance.

Serve Vergani Marron Glacé Panettone at room temperature or slightly warmed to release its aroma. It pairs beautifully with coffee, tea, or dessert wines such as Moscato d’Asti or Vin Santo. For a truly luxurious dessert, accompany it with whipped cream, mascarpone, or gelato.
