Is it really that good?
it's basically raisin breaddon't be fooled by Big Panettone
>>20974014well, it's not panetttwo.
>>20974022Mewtwo?
>>20974034
>>20974014its a extremely high calorie fruit cake made with almost equal parts butter and flour. very heavy and flavourful yet somehow light and delicate. not dense at all. its not like most cakes
>>20974020>it's basically raisin breadYep. I fell for the meme last year, spent over $100 on one. I don't know what I was thinking. /ck/ hyped it up as if it was the best thing ever and totally worth it. But it was just that, just a kind of bread-y muffin-y cake-y loaf with some fruit in it. Really nothing special at all and I felt so dumb when I took the first bite. Enjoyed it, but wouldn't pay more than $10 for one.
>>20974014looks too dry and chewy to be enjoyable
Like everything out of Italy: No.
>>20974209>$100 for panettone Congratulations you got swindled. Only the highest quality artisanal panettone is worth more than $30.

Pandoro is better >>20974209Nigga $10 is already a lot. In shitaly the supermarket ones are like 5€ max
>>20976234i posted my 'tone here >>20976369i have to pick my dad and his friend up from the pub, theyll be drunk so its going to be a really tense and annoying drive home :'(
>>20976559>5€ MaxDo not lie, also if you’re a true Italian and eat 5€ panettone (1 kg panettone) you’re a subhuman and should definitely go posting in fast food threads
>>20974209What third world shithole are you in?
>>20974209you spent over 100 bucks on something you didnt know whether you'd like or not?there really is such a thing as idiot tax isnt there
>>20976559>Pandoro is betteraccurate
>>20976559>Nigga $10 is already a lot. In shitaly the supermarket ones are like 5€ maxthis is not accurate and you are a fucking retard.
The taste is a little bland, but often they're beautifully packaged and it makes a good gift for an older relative.
I made panettone on my own for the first time this year. People who claim it's bland, picked a brand or a shop that used low quality ingredients. People who claim it's too expensive or not expensive at all are both wrong in different ways: supermarket 5 euros ones are not actual panettone and are made mostly with shit ingredients, while the ones 50 euros and above have no reason to be that expensive and try to justify the price by attaching a famous shop's or pastry chef name to the product. 25 to 35 euros is a fair price for artisanal panettone considering the time and ingredients involved.My opinion as a pastry chef is "its ok": it's a traditional item that can't miss from the shop between november and december, it's kind of a pain in the ass to make, it can taste really good (but not incredible) and I can totally see why there are people who are not crazy about it, though the reason is probably that they bought a shitty/mediocre one.
>>20976559>Pandoro is betteronly children like pandoro more.pandoro is ok only if the alternative is the cheapest supermarket panettone.But a quality 'tone mogs the shit out of any pandoro
>>20974014Yes
>paying more than $1 for BREAD WITH RAISINSI hate you faggots with all my heart
>>20979580Hating faggots is natural thoughever
It’s the best thing since sliced bread.
What’s the best mid tier panettone and why is it the Baladin beer panettone?>price 21.90€It’s perfect
>>20979318The trick to liking panettone is to only eat it in December.
Friendly reminder: these are the people (mostly Americans) who shit on panettone ITT while not being able to distinguish between a bread knife and a butter spreader (for the pistachio cream) so they end up raping the panettone.My cringed irl. https://youtu.be/zEIf9Ot0PIY
>>20981410>Nooo you didn't cut the bread right that's why it's mid you're supposed to use a bread knife and a bread knife only!!!Shitalians and their autistic rituals
>>20974014It's meh, just fluffy bread with raisins in it. It gets a lot better if you prepare it in the traditional Italian way though (pouring a large amount of brandy over it and setting it on fire just before serving).
>>20974014>made by italian convictsno
big 'tone always spams the board around this time of year.
okay, you convinced me, I'm gonna go out to buy a panettone if I find one, I'll post pics as proof.
If it was, you would not have to remake this thread every few days.
>>20974014yes>Verification not required.
ate the whole 'tone bros :'(im never gonna lose this weightoh well, time to punish myself again with another long walk
>>20982603was it good though?
>>20974039pusy
>>20974014not ready, pandolce on the other hand.
bought one of these things because of you faggots. Gona have it with coffee tomorrow morning and see how fucking shit it is
>>20984626You're gonna end up eating the whole thing. I specifically avoided the choc chip panettone because I knew I would probably eat it all (I'm on a diet). Even without the chocolate it tasted so good I couldn't help but eat it all in two sittings.
>>20974209Imagine letting the armpit of the Internet influence your real life in any way,much less spend a hundred dollars on a random thing.
>>20984638Interesting, are they really that good? I'll let you know tomorrow I guess but I thought it just looks like weird bread with chocolate in it.Which is kinda like a shitty chocolate croissant? But Italians haven't lead me astray yet but I'm in bongland, this thing says its made in Italy but fuck me English food can be a little cardboard-y at times
>>20974014it's great with champagne (or similar sparkling wines), on its own it's too dry. Since you are drinking that on new years anyway, this is the cake to serve with it.
>>20984657It's just a nice sweet tasting bread. But something about it just made me want to keep having more. I couldn't resist it. I imagine one with chocolate chips in it would be way more addicting.
>>20984657it's a fluffy sweet bread, kind of airy not really buttery but butter goes good with it. I never had the chocolate one but I had the original kind as a kid. If I was given a panettone, I would get one slice at least just to relive the memories. I always had it with hot chocolate.
