An Italian Christmas

The Panettone has arrived!
Shop now for the best selection! Perfect Thanksgiving hostess gift! Panettone are traditional Italian Holiday breads in a variety of flavors. The proofing process alone takes several days, giving the cake its distinctive fluffy characteristics. It contains candied orange, citron, and lemon zest, as well as raisins, which are added dry and not soaked. Many other variations are available such as plain or with chocolate. Enjoy with sweet wine or coffee.
Cheese Board
Casatica di Bufala Soft, bloomy, stracchino-style buffalo’s milk. Delicately milky, rich, creamy and sweet. A beautiful pillow of marshmallowy delight! Pair with bubbles for a match made in heaven. $25.99/lb
Rahmtaler “Rahm” = “Cream” in German, and with this cheese cream is added back to the vat. Traditionally nutty and slightly grassy, but with a little something else…a fun, sweet a sour balance in the finish which makes it both complex and pleasing. $21.99/lb
Le Chartreux Raw cow milk cheese with its pretty rind and the color of its paste going from ivory to yellow, Le Chartreux offers a fondant texture and a very fruity taste that lingers on the palate. Milk from Swiss cows is aged in a French castle. Best of both! $22.99/lb
