## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are the pandori fresh?**
A: Yes! Very fresh and spongy. It’s a good cake. Really big too!!! Be sure to read the instructions for using the powdered sugar packet. You’ll want to sprinkle the sugar on the cake and shake it in the bag before removing the cake for serving.

**Q: What's the Italian history of the pandoro?**
A: Was invented in Verona in 1884 by Domenico menegatti. Cake like a star with 8 punte

**Q: Does this have soy in the ingredients**
A: I believe soy lecithin is used in most of them, as an emulsifier.

**Q: how do you store it?**
A: I store it in a cabinet, with the original cellophan paper well closed.  It stores for months even after cutting a slice.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ order BEFORE Christmas
*by A***R on February 18, 2023*

We are big pandoro fans in my house so I thought we should try the original. First order was a big mistake - this product is made before Christmas but not after, and there are no preservatives. By February, the cake is at least 4 months old. Still edible if toasted, but just don't do it.This year we ordered much earlier and were pleased with the product - nice and fresh. People complain about the "burnt" bottom, but that's actually the top of the pan while it's baking and it's nearly impossible for it not to be brown. Just slice it off and get over it. People also complain that it's bland, but it's meant to be subtle. If you need more excitement, buy panettone instead. Or whip a few drops of Fiori di Sicilia into some mascarpone and add a dollop. Lastly, if you're complaining about paying appx twenty dollars for this, try to buy one in an Italian food store.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ New Christmas Tradition!
*by J***S on February 14, 2024*

We were lucky enough to receive one of these a few years ago and now we can't celebrate the holidays without one. So delicious, especially with morning coffee. The cake is light and fluffy and tears nicely. We get one of these for everyone on our holiday shopping list.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Holiday Treat
*by R***D on February 12, 2024*

Because I may have ordered after the season, the product was not as fresh.
