Ingredients and expertise by Master Pastry Chef Biasetto, 100% made in Italy
At the heart of our Christmas Cake is a 100% Italian organic flour from Piacenza: lower in gluten than Nordic flours, but more elegant and aromatic. The recipe uses live sourdough starter and ingredients selected one by one, fully respecting a completely artisanal process. For Biasetto, every element plays a precise role: the clear, plump Australian raisins are coated in beeswax to maintain their softness and prevent sugar crystallization; the Calabrian orange peels, candied "French-style" at a low temperature for over a week, turn into small cubes that melt on the palate; the Madagascar vanilla is carefully measured so as not to overwhelm the aromatic balance of the dough. The creation is completed by a macaron-style glaze—a baked meringue with almond flour and sugar crystals—which makes up about 15% of the cake's weight, lending a refined almond fragrance and an elegant visual uniformity.
Biasetto also emphasizes the total Italian identity of the project: "Apart from the raisins and the vanilla, this is a 100% Italian cake, from the raw materials to the hands that make it. It was born and crafted entirely in Italy, with Italian ingredients and Italian artisans: a true expression of our know-how."
