Baked in Arsego, Italy
Colomba is a popular Italian Easter-time tradition, similar to it’s Christmas-time counterpart Panettone in texture and flavour. Traditionally made with Candied orange, vanilla and a crunchy almond glaze, it is baked in the shape of a dove, representing peace and renewal. Even the most talented Italian nonna won’t make a Colomba at home, swearing instead by her favourite baker and pre-ordering the cake ahead of time, giving the master chef enough time to painstakingly wait for the dough to rise over at least 30 hours.
