No Italian Christmas is complete without the pleasure of sharing a panettone with family and friends. In fact, the popularity of panettone in Italy has spread internationally, and Australia is no exception. We are told that more than one hundred million Italian-made panettone are now sold worldwide.  

Panettone literally translates to "big bread" and is a sweet fermented bread. But where did panettone orginate? The answer to this question and all the questions you ever had about traditional panettone have been answered in a recent article titled "What we don't know about Panettone and what no one will ever say". It's a fascinating history and account by Stanilslao Porzio who is a Milan-based writer and gastronomy expert.
