Italain Christmas dessert – Pandoro ("golden bread")


“Pandoro (pan d'oro) is a traditional Italian sweet yeast bread, most popular around Christmas and New Year.
Breads enriched with eggs, butter and sugar or honey were served in the palaces and were known as "royal bread" or "golden bread"”

The pandoro comes with a pack of white sugar. They put sugar on top then shake with the bread. When it is done, the bread looks like cover by white snow. Perfect for Christmas season! It was soft and sweet with chocolate flavor.
