[edit]

Panettone does not contain citron or pine nuts! The traditional recipe wants candied fruit and raisins. No anise or chocolate. In the last years variations on panettone and pandoro included or excluded ingredients (with chocolate, no candied fruit or no raisins, etc) but these are only variations: commercial variations. Simonetta - Roma - Italy

And Pandoro does not come in a "cone" shape!! it has a very distictive star section, it is served covered in icing sugar and very often cut horizontally, then the slices are rotated 20-30 degrees in order to alternate the star "points" and create a Xmas tree shape - of sorts...

Dipped in coffe, tea, milk????? we are not talking about a "cornetto" with which most Italians start their day...Pandoro is served as a pudding, generally "nature", occasionally with sauces such as a mascarpone sauce (mascarpone cheese, sugar, eggs) or less traditionally a chocolate ganache(cream, chocolate). Who writes this stuff??

Need to find material on the relation between Ofella and Pandoro. This site http://www.cittadiverona.it/guide/prodotti-tipici/dolci.php proposes that the Ofella was developed from the Nadalin, this other suggests that the Ofella was the ancestor of the Pandoro http://www.tourism.verona.it/_vti_g2_pian1.aspx?rpstry=27_ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.103.18.60 (talk) 23:44, 17 December 2003 (UTC)[reply]
