Bring a true taste of Sicily to your holiday table with the Dais Pandoro Classico. This traditional Italian Christmas cake, known as "pan d'oro" or "golden bread," is a buttery, vanilla-scented masterpiece. Unlike its cousin, the panettone, this 750g Pandoro is celebrated for its simple purity—no candied fruit or raisins, just a supremely soft, cloud-like, and naturally leavened cake.

Made by Dolce Sicilia Dais, this Pandoro is famous for its tall, eight-pointed star shape. It arrives with a packet of powdered sugar, allowing you to dust the "snowy" peak yourself just before serving. It's the perfect centerpiece for a holiday dessert or a wonderful breakfast with coffee.

A Classic Holiday Presentation

For a beautiful display, gently warm the Pandoro and slice it horizontally. Each slice will look like a perfect, buttery star. Stack the slices slightly offset to create a "Christmas tree" shape. Dust with the included sugar for a festive, snowy effect.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Pandoro?

Pandoro is a traditional Italian sweet cake, most popular during Christmas and New Year. Its name translates to "golden bread," referring to its rich, yellow color from egg yolks and butter. It originates from Verona and is baked in a special 8-pointed star-shaped pan.

How is Pandoro different from Panettone?

This is the classic Italian holiday debate! The main difference is the mix-ins and shape:

  • Pandoro: Is star-shaped, has a lighter, fluffier texture, and contains no candied fruit or raisins. Its flavor is simpler, focusing on butter and vanilla.
  • Panettone: Is dome-shaped, has a denser (but still soft) texture, and traditionally contains candied citrus and raisins.

Many people (especially children) prefer Pandoro for its simple, buttery sweetness.

 

What is the best way to serve this Pandoro?

Pandoro is delicious on its own, dusted with the included powdered sugar. It is often served for breakfast with coffee or as a dessert. You can also serve slices with a side of mascarpone cream, fresh berries, or a scoop of gelato.
