T’a Milano Panettone: a sweet return to tradition combined with creativity.

 

The origins of the Panettone date back to Ludovico il Moro, but the tradition of the
Panettone as a symbol of Christmas may be attributed without doubt to Gioacchino Alemagna, great grandfather of Tancredi and Alberto Alemagna.

When he was little more than a child, Gioacchino Alemagna was employed as a shop boy in a bread and bakery shop. Here he began to become familiar with the world of leavened products. During World War I he became an army cook, earning enough money to open a workshop in Melegnano, in 1921, when he returned from the front. A few years later, he inaugurated his first pastry shop in the centre of Milan, which was an instant success – some say, not just for the indisputable quality of his products, but also for the beauty of his wife Eva, who worked the till and was widely admired.

The birth of the Panettone as we know it today, with its classic mushroom shape, is a point of contention between Alemagna and another historical company of the time. What is certain is that Alemagna transformed the Panettone into a quintessential symbol of Christmas, through extensive advertising campaigns (anyone past their prime will undoubtedly remember the 1950s posters by Bertaux depicting an angel offering a Panettone on a tray) and the slogan “It’s spelt Christmas, it’s pronounced Alemagna”.

The Classic Handmade Panettone is perfect paired with a mascarpone cream, which can be made very quickly and easily.
