What do you mean, one hundred years? It is common knowledge that panettone was likely created back in the Renaissance, possibly at the Milanese court of Ludovico Sforza: that’s much more than 100 years!

Well, it’s true: our delicious, beloved panettone, symbol of Christmas festivities, soft, buttery goodness of our holidays does come from the Renaissance. It’s not, in fact, panettone as a cake to celebrate 100 years of age, but rather its most famous, iconic version: the Panettone Motta.
