Dal Colle’s Italian Egg Shaped Easter Cake with Pistachio Cream and Chocolate Drops is a rich and sweet pastry filled with smooth nutty cream and covered with white chocolate, hazelnut crumbs, and puffed rice for a new take on the classic sweet-and-crunchy texture and flavor combo of the classic Colomba Pasquale.
In many European countries, it’s tradition to serve sweetened bread during the Easter holidays. In Italy, that traditional Easter bread is Colomba Pasquale, i.e., “Easter Dove,” aptly named for its dove-shaped form. Colomba dough is made similarly to Panettone, the traditional Christmas bread: with an ample amount of butter, sugar, eggs, and flour. Unlike Panettone, Colomba doesn’t contain raisins and is covered with pearl sugar and almonds before being baked, giving it a crunchy, sweet top. Dal Colle’s Uovo cake is a modern take on Colomba: the classic fluffy, airy pastry with a new shape. Explore our seasonal cake assortment for more Easter cake options, both traditional and novel.
