The Amletina panettone collection: four flavours made with sourdough
Who says you have to wait until Christmas to enjoy panettone? Amletina panettone is already in our stores: four flavours, from Classic to Pistachio and Salted Caramel, all naturally leavened for 36 hours. Choose them in clear packaging, hand-wrapped or in a gift box, to enjoy at home or to give as a gift.
Sourdough and 36 hours of natural leavening
Our panettone is made in the Amletina workshops by our Pastry Chef Lorenzo Lemmi, with sourdough starter and a 36-hour natural rise. That’s the time the dough needs to become soft, fragrant and airy. On this base we’ve created four different flavours, one for every kind of sweet tooth.
It takes three days to make an Amletina panettone. Here’s how we do it:
- The sourdough starter. Everything starts with our sourdough starter and carefully selected ingredients. Before we begin, the starter is refreshed.
- The first dough. We knead and leave it to rise until the dough has tripled in volume.
- The second dough. After a night’s rest, we knead again. Besides the candied peel and raisins of the Classic, this is when the chocolate of the Triple Chocolate or the white chocolate and berries go into the dough.
- The second rise. The dough is placed in paper moulds, where it rises a second time.
- Baking. A cross cut on the dome, and into the oven.
- Cooling. Straight out of the oven, the panettone rests upside down for 10 hours: this keeps the dome from sinking and the crumb soft.
Behind every Amletina panettone there’s time, care and the small gestures that make all the difference.
The four flavours
Classic panettone
Classic – The authentic taste of tradition. Panettone just as you know it: candied orange peel and selected Australian raisins. The safe choice for the festive table and for anyone who loves the traditional recipe.
Chocolate panettone
Triple Chocolate – A chocolate treat waiting to be discovered. A chocolate panettone with a soft dough, rich in chocolate, for those who won’t give up cocoa at Christmas. A big hit with children too.
White chocolate and berry panettone
White Chocolate and Berries – Sweetness with a fruity twist. The sweetness of white chocolate meets the tangy notes of mixed berries. A fresh balance for anyone looking for something a little different.
Pistachio and salted caramel panettone
Pistachio and Salted Caramel – An irresistible pairing. The intense flavour of pistachio with salted caramel. The most indulgent of the collection, and a gift that gets noticed.

Book them or have them set aside
Want to be sure you get your favourite flavour, or need several panettoni for corporate gifts? You can book them at your Amletina store. If you buy them in advance, we’ll keep them aside for you until you collect them, with a copy of the receipt.
How to enjoy them at their best
- Serve it at room temperature: its aroma and softness come through better.
- Cut it into vertical wedges, from top to bottom, so every slice gets both dome and soft centre.
- Bring out each flavour: the Classic with a dessert wine or sparkling wine, the Triple Chocolate with a coffee, the Pistachio and Salted Caramel on its own, at the end of a meal.
- Store it in its wrapping, closed, in a cool, dry place away from heat sources.
