Colomba di Pasqua, or simply Colomba, is a traditional Italian Easter cake shaped like a dove (colomba in Italian). Similar in texture to Panettone it is an iconic Easter treat in Italy, symbolizing peace and renewal. It is often enjoyed with coffee, dessert wine, or simply on its own.
A beautifully packaged artisan pear and chocolate colomba made with mother yeast and local ingredients. The dough is slowly risen for 48 hours, resulting in a light, soft, moist cake, with an irresistible aroma. Studded with candied pear and rich dark chocolate, its flavor harmoniously balances the sweetness of the fruit with the slight bitterness of the chocolate.
For the best experience, allow the colomba to rest at room temperature (around 20°C) for a few hours before serving.
