When you think of Christmas, your mind immediately turns to dinners and lunches rich in courses, joy, affection, and… Sweetness!
And if we're talking about sweetness, Chiostro di Saronno comes into play: with this article, we want to provide you with some tips to make your Christmas panettone even more delicious, by serving it with exquisite creams.
Tips on which creams to pair with panettone
Our suggestions range from more traditional options to more original ones, so we hope they can satisfy many different tastes and palates.
-
Mascarpone Cream
If we say "cream to accompany panettone," a good portion of people think of it: mascarpone cream. And rightly so, because it's a traditional pairing and a simple recipe, but one that never fails. -
Custard Cream
A super classic of Italian pastry, custard cream is always a crowd-pleaser and makes all desserts superb, including panettone. For a more intense flavor, you can also choose its chocolate version. -
Almond Custard Cream
Almond custard cream is an ideal variation for those who are gluten and lactose intolerant, but we recommend it with panettone for anyone who wants to try something new. -
Chantilly Cream
If you don't particularly like custard cream and aren't keen on chocolate, you can opt for chantilly cream: delicate, simple, and sweet, it gives panettone an extra boost. -
Pistachio Cream
Few can resist the combination of panettone and pistachio cream: it's a traditional yet always winning choice, because most of the time it satisfies all tastes. -
Zabaione
Egg yolks and sugar, a simple, old-fashioned recipe that warms many hearts. Zabaione is a cream that enhances panettone beautifully, delivering delightful sensations to the palate with the simplicity that distinguishes this spoon dessert. -
Pear Cream
A different idea from the usual is definitely pairing panettone with pear cream, which is delicate and sweet, capable of enhancing the panettone without overpowering it. An alternative you might not have considered, but one worth trying. -
Almond Frangipane Cream
If you want to move away from more traditional creams without being too daring, you can choose almond frangipane cream, similar to custard cream but with a less velvety consistency. Just a few simple ingredients and this delicacy is ready to meet panettone! -
Chocolate Ganache Cream
When cream and chocolate meet in a ganache and combine with panettone, the "wow" effect is guaranteed! This cream is perfect for those who can't resist chocolate at Christmas.
