  • The Traditional Colomba Italian Cake in Dubai and UAE

    When spring arrives in Italy, bakeries and homes fill with the sweet, citrusy aroma of the Colomba di Pasqua , or Easter Dove Cake . This classic Italian treat is more than just a dessert — it's a symbol of peace, renewal, and celebration. Artisanal Colomba Cake with Candied Orange Peels, beautifully presented in vibrant packaging by Flamigni 1930 – 1kg of classic Italian indulgence. What is a Colomba Cake? The Colomba cake is often described as the Easter counterpart to the beloved Christmas panettone. Like panettone, it's a rich, yeasted cake made with butter, eggs, flour, and natural leavening, but what sets it apart is its unique dove-shaped form  — “colomba” means dove in Italian. Traditionally, the dove symbolizes peace and the Holy Spirit, making it a fitting centerpiece for Easter tables across Italy. A Slice of History The origins of the Colomba cake trace back to Lombardy , in northern Italy. Though many legends surround its invention, the modern version was commercialized in the early 20th century by Angelo Motta, a Milanese baker who also popularized panettone. Since then, it has become a cherished centerpiece of Italian Easter Spring celebrations. The Traditional Colomba Italian Cake in Dubai and UAE. Traditional Italian Colomba cake, featuring a soft, moist interior studded with candied fruit. Topped with a crunchy almond and sugar crust, this delicacy is now enjoyed in Dubai and across the UAE. How It's Made Crafting a traditional Colomba cake is a labor of love . The dough undergoes a long fermentation process, which gives it a soft, airy texture. It’s enriched with candied orange peel , and unlike panettone, it usually doesn't include raisins. The cake is then shaped into a dove, placed in a paper mold, and topped with a signature almond glaze  and pearl sugar before baking. The final result? A golden, fragrant cake with a slightly crunchy, sweet crust and a tender, buttery crumb inside. Artisanally crafted Colomba cake made with antique grains, beautifully wrapped by Flamigni, showcasing a golden slice without candied orange peels. Colomba Cake from Classic to Modern Twists While purists may stick to the classic orange and almond version, modern variations of the Colomba cake have emerged across Italy and beyond. Today, you can find Colombe filled with chocolate chips , lemor or orange custards , or with speciality addition of exotic fruits and edible flowers . Artisanal bakers often take creative liberties, combining regional ingredients with traditional techniques. How to Serve Colomba Colomba cake in Italy is traditionally served after Easter lunch , often accompanied by a glass of sparkling wine  or sweet Vin Santo . It's also delicious with coffee or tea — or even lightly toasted and served with a dollop of mascarpone cream or a spoonful of jam for breakfast or dessert. Typically enjoyed after Easter family and friends lunch, Colomba pairs beautifully with sweet wines , espresso , or tea . It can be served sliced fresh, toasted with a bit of butter, or dressed up with whipped mascarpone or a drizzle of honey.
