Apricot Colomba
Pastificio Gentile’s Apricot Colomba is a delicious celebration of Campania’s rich flavors, featuring the renowned “Pellecchiella” apricot from the fertile slopes of Mount Vesuvius. This apricot, cherished for its intense sweetness and juicy, tender flesh, boasts a smooth, thin skin in shades of yellow-orange, often tinged with red, making it both visually striking and flavorful. The Colomba’s golden-brown crust is lightly glazed with the natural sweetness of these exquisite apricots, creating a delicate sugary crunch. Inside, the airy, moist crumb offers a melt-in-your-mouth texture, with vibrant apricot notes blending beautifully with the buttery dough and a subtle hint of citrus. The flavor is balanced and lively, with a touch of honeyed sweetness and a clean, slightly tangy finish that lingers on the palate. A true taste of the volcanic terroir of the Vesuvius area, this Colomba encapsulates the essence of Campania in every bite.
