Panettone Framboisissimo + Tiramisu: The Perfect Gourmet Duo

Le Panettone Framboisissimo from Viva Panettone, with its dark chocolate chunks and intense notes of tangy red fruits, offers a unique taste experience. Its rich, jam-like flavor, enhanced by Raspberry Inspiration chocolate, makes it the perfect ingredient to reinvent an Italian classic: tiramisu. This easy-to-make dessert is ideal for any occasion, whether it’s a family dinner or a sweet indulgence with friends. Make this irresistible recipe with your favorite flavor of our panettone: chocolate, candied fruits, or even Espresso for coffee lovers. Here’s how to prepare this delicious version of tiramisu, combining the creaminess of mascarpone and the lightness of panettone.

Ingredients

  • About 500 g of Panettone Framboisissimo from Viva Panettone
  • 500 g (2 ¼ cups) of high-quality mascarpone
  • 4 medium eggs (about 220 g without shells)
  • 100 g (½ cup) of powdered sugar
  • 300 ml (1 ¼ cups) of coffee (preferably espresso)
  • Unsweetened cocoa powder

Instructions

1. Prepare the coffee
Start by brewing the coffee (preferably a strong espresso). Let it cool to room temperature.

2. Separate the eggs
Separate the egg whites from the yolks. Whip the egg whites until stiff peaks form. You’ll know they’re ready when you can turn the bowl upside down without the whites moving. Set aside.

3. Prepare the mascarpone cream
In another bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the sugar for 3 to 5 minutes until the mixture is pale and frothy. Then gently fold in the mascarpone until smooth and creamy.

4. Fold in the whipped egg whites
Carefully fold the whipped egg whites into the mascarpone cream using a wooden spoon or spatula. Use gentle upward motions to preserve the airy texture. The mixture should be smooth and light.

5. Assemble the tiramisu
Slice the Panettone Framboisissimo into pieces about 1 cm thick.
Quickly dip the panettone slices (for only 1 second) into the cooled coffee. Be careful not to over-soak them to avoid a watery tiramisu.
Place the first layer of panettone in your dish or serving glass, ensuring the bottom is fully covered.
Spread a generous layer of mascarpone cream over the panettone.
Repeat the process with a second layer of coffee-dipped panettone, followed by a layer of cream. For a final layer, spread the cream generously.

Viva Panettone : In road to la coppa del mondo de panettone

 

 

The Panettone World Cup is much more than just a pastry competition. It’s a global event that celebrates excellence, craftsmanship, and the tradition of an iconic Italian dessert: panettone. For pastry enthusiasts, food lovers, and the curious alike, this event offers a unique opportunity to discover the finest panettone creations from around the world.

What is panettone?

Originating from Milan, panettone is a traditional Italian Christmas cake known for its soft texture, candied fruits, and subtle aromas of vanilla and citrus. The process of making panettone is complex and demanding, requiring several days of natural fermentation to achieve the lightness and characteristic flavor of the final product.

History of the Panettone World Cup

The Panettone World Cup was created to celebrate and promote this Italian delicacy around the world. The idea was born from the desire to highlight the craftsmanship of bakers and pastry chefs who continue the tradition of panettone while innovating and experimenting with new recipes. Since its inception, this event has attracted participants from every continent, each bringing their own touch and interpretation of this treat.

How are the panettones judged?

The competition is open to professional pastry chefs from around the world, who must submit their best panettone creation. Competitors are judged on several criteria:

  • Visual appearance: The panettone’s volume and color.
  • Baking: Mastery of fermentation and baking techniques.
  • Texture: The lightness and consistency of the crumb.
  • Aroma: Natural sourdough gives panettone its exquisite flavors and aromas.
  • Filling distribution: The evenness of candied fruits within the crumb.
  • Taste: The balance of aromas and richness of flavors.

The judges are pastry experts, renowned chefs, and food critics, all recognized for their expertise and passion for panettone.

Winning the Panettone World Cup is a prestigious honor that can transform a pastry chef’s career. The winners receive international recognition and often see their fame grow significantly. Moreover, the event helps spread and popularize panettone around the world, sparking a growing interest in this traditional Italian dessert.

 

Viva Panettone on the road to the World Cup!

Viva Panettone is a Canadian company founded by world-renowned artisans Eric Goeury and Anthony Daniele. Together, they have taken on the challenge of producing high-quality artisanal panettone all year round.

The Signature, a traditional panettone with candied fruits, won the North American elimination finals in New York and was selected among the 30 international finalists who will present their panettone at the Panettone World Cup next November in Milan, Italy.

“I must admit we went through a whole range of emotions while the jury tasted the panettones blind. Italian cuisine is extremely popular in the United States, and there are many excellent artisans making outstanding panettones,” explains Anthony Daniele, artisan, co-founder of Viva Panettone, and a French-Italian based in Quebec.

“The fact that our panettone was selected as one of the two finalists warmed our hearts and confirmed the mission we set out to achieve when founding Viva Panettone: to give Canadians access to fresh, high-quality, artisanal, traditional panettone tailored to local tastes,” explains Eric Goeury, artisan, co-founder of Viva Panettone, and culinary ambassador for Quebec maple syrup.
