We thought about having a class which is both challenging and fun, with a little bit of team work, but leaving our guests in full control of the assembly and finish of their creation. We are very excited to announce that we are now offering classes at our Pastry Lab in Gastown. Each class experience … Read more

As outlined in A Fun History of Panettone, this sweet bread delicacy has been a traditional seasonal staple in Italy for a long time, and has spread around the globe as well.

For our Panettone Cioccolato to live up to its name (yes, cioccolato directly translates to chocolate in Italian), of course we must be very particular with the chocolate itself. The type of chocolate is very important, but also the size of the pieces, its distribution, and the level to which it melts. In addition to … Read more
Panettone is made from a leavened dough, and as such, kneading is a very important aspect of production that directly impacts the final result. This is a process that was traditionally done by hand. Typically, in an artisanal setting, doing things by hand is part of the appeal and also often correlates to a more … Read more
Candied fruit, or “canditi” in Italian, is a typical component of a classic Panettone alongside raisins. It is a reminder of the holidays, and can be enjoyed by both adults and children alike. This enjoyment, however, it is also quite divisive, and is a line drawn with no consideration for age, exposure, or any other … Read more
Did you know that each and every Panettone we produce shares the same 70-year-old yeast from Italy? In Italian, this is referred to as the “Lievito Madre,” which literally translates to “mother yeast.” Typically, when we bake, we have our recipe, collect our ingredients, and follow a specific process. Most ingredients can be found readily … Read more
The history of panettone is full of fun folklore and variable origin stories, most dependent on the nonna with whom you last spoke. The product is a staple of Italian Christmas tradition, and with annual production numbers globally around 120 million panettoni, it is no wonder that everyone wishes to volunteer their own version of … Read more
At Antise Vancouver, we run a relatively small local production meant to give focus and care to the panettone we produce. The ingredients are natural, fresh, and without preservatives. Every component and every step of the process is guided with experienced eyes and hands. The result is a panettone that is very moist and fluffy, retains its enveloping aroma, and has its full natural flavour.
Emiddio Isernia and Antise Vancouver are pleased to announce the opening of our online store at antisevancouver.com, where you can now order our freshly produced Artisanal Panettone from the comfort and safety of your home for delivery to major cities in British Columbia.
