Panettone with Amarena Cherries

This panettone with Amarena cherries is a wonderful combination of two Italian greats. The golden, buttery slow-leavened dough is studded with Fabbri’s rich, decadently sweet black cherries – they give a real pop of flavour. Tear off strips and enjoy with mascarpone cream and a glass of sweet marsala wine. 

The panettone is beautifully wrapped in Amarena’s signature white and blue swirls and makes a fantastic gift for any food lover this Christmas.

The Amarena is a variety of sour cherry that was developed by Gennaro Fabbri in 1869. His wife, Rachele, slowly cooked the cherries and semi-candied them. Gennaro liked them so much, that he bought a white-and-blue ceramic jar to thank her. Rachele then had the idea to sell the cherry syrup in the decorative jars, and in 1905 the Fabbri company was born.
