Colomba Cake, or Colomba di Pasqua or Italian Dove Bread Easter Cake is a panettone-like airy cake typically made without the sultanas (raisins)! This classically soft Colomba cake is full of fragrant cubes of candied orange peel and lathered in Filippi’s famously crisp frosting. The classic Filippi is the dove par excellence, an authentic synthesis of tradition and authenticity of the ingredients. Butter, flour, eggs and vanilla berries are expertly mixed to form an irregular glutinic texture typical of natural leavening. Candied orange peel cubes enrich and perfume a soft dough with a delicate taste. The glaze is rich and crunchy, obtained by mixing fine "Prima Bari" almonds, sugar and egg white.
Filippi’s creed of only using the best ingredients and allowing time for their dough to leaven produces the greatest product imaginable. In an age where technology rules, Filippi still believes that people are the heart of their Italian company. Started in 1972 by Mamma Maria and Papà Giuliano, the focus on high standards and quality continues with their sons still today. Wrapped in beautiful packaging, Filippi stands out among all other Colomba cakes. Following their Italian tradition, Filippi hand packs each and every one of their Colomba cakes. This cake makes for a great gift for your host or hostess or a magnificent addition to your own Easter dinner.
