Scarpato - since 1888

Pasticceria Scarpato produces some of Italy's finest artisanal holiday cakes, crafted in Verona since 1888. Celebrated by gourmet guides like Gambero Rosso, Scarpato panettones are renowned for their incredible softness, rich milky aromas, and dedication to century-old baking rituals.

The foundation of every cake is a natural sourdough starter handed down from the original 1888 recipe, refreshed by pastry chefs three times every single day.  The dough undergoes a rigorous 72-hour cycle involving four separate kneading stages and slow, controlled rising times.
