There’s so many lovely delights to choose from, including Panettone with Gelato, mini panettone filled with your choice of 2 gelato, such as espresso, amaretto, and chocolate, and Saucy Pandoro, a mini pandoro with 3 sauces, recommended with the Vin Brulee Italian mulled wine with cinnamon, orange zest and cloves.

There’s also Drunken Panettone – mini panettone steeped in vinsanto and passito, whipped cream, ideal with the Hot Chocolate, gianduja or dark hot chocolate topped with whipped cream. You can’t miss the Panmarenda – mini panettone or gelato, served with a glass of milk. Glorious.
