In Italy, the Pandoro and Panettone are THE Christmas cakes, but Italians have always been divided into two very distinct factions – those who favour panettone and those who favour pandoro.

Panetonne has a rich and colourful history that dates as far back as the Roman Empire when the ancient Romans used to sweeten a kind of leavened cake with honey. Although there are many variations to this history, all versions point that the birthplace of panettone was indeed Milan.

The name ‘Panettone’ was officially copyrighted in 2005 and is directly derived from the Italian word ‘panetto’ (meaning a small loaf cake) and the augmentative Italian suffix ‘one’ which altered the meaning to ‘large cake’. The first recorded connection between Panettone and Christmas can be found in the intricate writings of the eighteenth-century illumist Pietro Verri who refers to the delicacy as ‘Pan de Ton’ (luxury bread).

Back in 200 AD, Panettone resembled a cured bread loaf made with yeast, honey, pumpkin and dried fruit. By 600 AD it looked more like a focaccia that was made with corn flour and grapes. Fast-forward to 800 AD and the name ‘panettone’ refered to cornbread made with eggs, sugar and raisins.

The panettone we know and love today dates to the early twentieth century when Angelo Motta first made it with its tall, fluted form. It is still made with a soft, cured dough which contains flour, egg yolk, sugar, butter, raisins, citrus zest, and candied citrus fruit.

Apart from being able to buy the most delicious panetonne from esteemed establishments such as the Martesana Pastry House and the historic Pasticceria Panzera in Milan, many Italians still choose to bake their own festive treats at home.

Although many passionate bakers follow the tried-and-tested recipes passed down for generations, those who are slightly more adventurous will experiment with variations of the traditional recipe to include scrumptious ingredients such as limoncello and chocolate.

Notes from Freya's Florence Tours - Freya Middleton

Around the world the word of 2021 surely must be "Quarantine" and this word, now back in use in our daily lives, was first used in Venice.

Given the numerous epidemics and plagues, brought by sailors, that struck the city, the Serenissima government decided to introduce an innovative system to prevent the spread of diseases: a forty-day isolation period, hence the term "quarantine" (forty in Italian is quaranta).

The old island of Santa Maria di Nazareth, later called Nazaretum and finally Lazzaretto Vecchio, was used as a shelter for infected people and a new area was established, Lazzaretto Nuovo, where newly disembarked sailors and other possible infected people were isolated for forty days.
