One of our favorite Spring indulgences has arrived! This Easter version of Italian panettone does not have quite as rich a history as its Christmas counterpart, but it can be traced back to a hungry bakery owner in the early 1900s. The
Colomba Cake, baked in a dove-shaped pan, is studded with only candied orange peel (no citron or raisins, as in the traditional panettone) and is topped with almonds and sugar.
